Title: holset h1c turbine wheel replace?
Post by: catsman50 on October 10, 2010, 08:58:13 PM
I'm wondering if I should change this wheel out before I boost my car or not? The turbo spins freely and has very little shaft play but sewell said it was up to me if I wanted to change it or not what do you guys think?

I would definitely replace it.

Going to spool slow and have balance issues.

that's what I was thinking to... but aren't these turbos externally balanced?

If theres material missing from the wheel then it isn't balanced anymore is it? Externally balanced, what does that mean?

I would definitely replace it.

agree

Enjoy spinning your shaft >100k rpms with a CHINESE rebuild kit. Sure it may go in, and feel great. But how confident are you that it's gonna hold together?
   I'd pay to KNOW beyond a doubt that the parts were genuine Holset quality.

Anyone use the egay rebuild kits on a slut? Seem like they are Holset replacement parts? I'd like to know this myself for future reference.

I'll call up the dodge dealer tomorrow to see what they charge for a rebuild kit and exhaust turbine.

Just buy a new turbo or give goldfarb a call
