almost all turbos are rebuildable, if you DIy the kit usually comes with all the new seals and bearings. if not oyu can send it gpopshop which is what alot of guys here use to rebuild their turbos. or if oyu want you can upgrade to K04 turbos which are like the stock K03s but are cabale of more boost.

I do plan on doing it myself but I just wanted to make sure that would definetly be rebuildable. I would really like to go with k04 but cant really afford 2g right now. Thanks for the info!!
