i have a turbo that had been recentely rebuilt, but had the misfourtune of meeting a piece from the x-over pipe, and being chewed up :rant:

all it needs is a new compressor wheel.......

my question is,...what would happen if i just put a new wheel on it and used it???

could the balance be that far off????

Yes it could very well be. Its not that easy, send it out to Waller and get back something real nice.
Otherwise I know of a cheap turbo that works you can buy.

Dollars to doughnuts, it won't be balanced since it is balanced as an assembly. There's no other way to do it when you're dealing with 130,000 to 140,000 RPMS which is what the stock turbo spins at...

Turbotyphoon69 is selling his 20g. No mods except for afpr, and up here at 6000', he ran a 13.6 @ 98 with it. I am not sure what he is selling it for but I bought mine pretty much new for 650 so I cant imagine held sell it for a whole lot. Ild probably wouldnt take less than 3 for mine. Ild send him a PM and see if you guys can get something worked out. If thats what you want to do of course.
