Default Turbo shot!!

While driving my 98 GS3 today I suddenly detected a loud rattling sound coming from the turbo area. It appears to be a bad center bearing. This is a 61 water cooled turbo. Any suggestions as to where to send it for repair?

Best place would be to send it back to the place of manufacture . Since it's water cooled I hope it's not a DBB turbo as the whole centre cartridge will need to be replaced and that will cost you a pretty penny...more info on the turbo would be helpful though.
