Turbo Balancing Outfits
Anybody have a shop they know/trust?
the fellow that sold me a 6758 must have run this thing without a filter for its "5,000" miles. Compressor wheel is hammered. Luckily it looks like there is no contact with the compressor housing, shaft has no radial play and what feels like an acceptable about of thrust play Pulled some strings and found an OEM replacement wheel, but I think it might be smart to have the whole thing gone through "while they are in there" to install and balance. My local guy's balancing machine is down, and appeared to be the only cat in California that still provides this service Option B is to just send it as is. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...70f2923c24.jpg |

Last time I called Southeast Power Systems, I believe they told me it was like $850 to replace the center cartridge. this was ~2 years ago.

Things get destroyed when you take it apart or? I found a local shop that said they could take the job. Now I’m worried I’ll have a paperweight if they aren’t familiar with EFR’s |
