i have a question about stock turbos such at the ct26 can these be rebuild to build more pressure for more do you definitely have to buy an aftermarket turbo

NO....

As soon as you 'upgrade' the turbo you start to loose reliability. If you want reliability, rebuild. If you want a little more then do wheel upgrades. If you want a lot, then get a different turbo..

ct26 will hold up just fine, just tune your engine , instead of throwing massive amounts of boost, just throwing boost at stock 7m ecu will get you like 8hp/psi, , which means you need to throw alot of psi to get any good numbers, or you can tune it and get 20-25hp/psi and run 1/2 the boost which means low stress on your turbo.. stay within the limits and it'll last a very long time. depends on the numbers you want to make.
