I have rebuilt two Mitsubishi TD04's and one TD04E, I don't know how alike they are to what you got, but it was fairly easy to come apart. If I could catch a pic of what you got, I may be able to guide you. I can clean the turbines for you at the shop (Miami Acura @ SW 168th and US1), if you do get it apart, and get the turbine shaft out, etc.,. We have a high heat "steamer" parts cleaner that will make it cleeeeeaaan. Make sure, if you do get it apart, you are extremely clean with all the parts. Not a grain of sand any where.. good luck either way!!

Here ya go Joe... I had to darken the pics a bit cause of the flash, but you can check out the pins. I think you really wanted to look at how the wireing is put together, but it does get a bit messy... anyway check it out:

^Good, im sick as hell but hopefully itll pass soon. You?

Ok guys, as crappy as i feel, i coudn't stop my car addiction. Ive been doing some reading on the Forge 007 BPV and the bosch 110. Appreantly, although the bosche can hold the boost just fine, witht he Forge 007, the boost comes on earlier and stronger. I just ordered it so hopefully itll be here soon and i can report about the difference.
