The turbo is fine, but I was curious about a few things.

Is it possible to rebuild it with a DBB center cartridge? Can the wheels be swapped out with GT wheels?

I dont' think it is. The t78's made by greddy were based off of Mitsubishi designs. The DBB housings are of course garrett. If the shafts are the same journal size and the same length then it is possible.

IIRC, there isn't a GT wheel big enough for what you want, that is small enough to fit on that shaft.
