place to balance turbos in cleveland?
i'm in the process of replacing the compressor wheel on my turbo and i'm pretty sure i should get it balanced rather than risk it. any one know of any shops in ohio? even the tri state area would work.

cool, that mi turbo place wouldn't be too bad. i was also thinking of contacting buschur racing in norwalk ohio. one of my friends recommended them to me.
has anyone had any experience with running an unbalanced turb? i would figure just having a compressor that isn't chunked would be better than what i was running before, my compressor wheel has got two pretty big pieces missing and it didn't do anything noticeably weird.
i have been hearing alot of conflicting information on how dangerous it is to run an unbalanced turbo. A freightliner tech told me that he's seen chunked compressor wheels run forever and never do anything bad. Everyone else for the most part says you're asking for trouble. All i know is i don't need to rebuild my motor cause i got cheap and greedy.

It's not that much money, you need to at least cost it out. When I had mine done, I had bought a rebuild kit from a guy, he had me send in my wheels and shaft. Balanced it on my new bearing, then sent it back. So I can't say how much, in that case all it cost me was the shipping.
I didn't have chunks missing! You, on the other hand, have chunks missing LOL
