Changing out turbo 850 1994

Soon will take possession of an 850 T and would like to hear of experiences doing this chore. Supposedly this unit has bad turbo seals and needs a rebuild.

Your input is appreciated,

I have a 1994 turbo 854 with 300k same turbo and I drive it hard. How do you screw up the seals. Did you check the rubber hose going to the intercoolerhard pipe? I've replaced that at 160k.
