I hate when I don't understand what's being said. anyway, does that turbo city kit work for S4 turbos? the turbo in my car leaks oil from the turbine side and I want to have it fixed. can I rebuild it myself and sent it out to be balanced? I also plan on swapping compressors with my Airesearch T04B.

From the picture on the page from the link, it's for a carbon seal.
Yes, that's the correct turbo rebuild kit.

What's the difference between floating carbon seal, dynamic and encapsulated carbon seal? which is better?

Turbocity rocks for stock rebuild kits, they will rebuild it for you for $272bucks

The stock Hitachi uses the carbon seal.
It's obvious when you get the carbon versus dynamic seal side-by-side - they are not interchangable.
Now, I'd like to know what an "encapsulated carbon seal" is myself!

#1 is a Dynamic seal
#2 is the Encapsulated carbon seal
#3 is Four-piece carbon seal

Which is best?

Also, does anyone know where I can find T3/T4 ball bearings that I could use while rebuilding my stock turbo?
