Title: Balancing Turbos?
Post by: foxracer1 on January 04, 2008, 02:17:22 pm

I have reasembled my VNt15/17 and it seems it has balancing marks. Can any turbo supplier balance it? How much does it usually run? Thanks for the help in advance.

You shouldn't need to balance it. The turbine and compressor should be balanced individually.

Really? Well i heard from someone else that you shouldn't have to have them balanced. What should i torque the nut on the compressor to?
