Hey fellas,

Looking to get a different billet wheel, 10 blade turbine and vanes for a lly turbo and throw it on my lbz.

I have the turbo,just would like a recommendation of who to send it to to have it balanced and assembled. Lmk

Last time I talked to him he has been a busy guy and got another job. I don't honestly know if he is doing them anymore.

I have called Midwest turbo and yellow Chevy is now working and doing his business, I called Danville and they do not sell wetzel wheels.

So I am looking for a place that I can buy a lly rebuild kit, and a 10 blade psd wheel along with the wetzel wheel. I'd like to purchase it already balanced then I can rebuild the turbo myself. Anybody have a place I can call? Lmk plz

Shoot Brock (minerigger) a pm. I know he has done some mods to a lly turbo in the past for Josh (josh154). If nothing else he might know a good place to send it

You going to p&p and try to drop in a little bit bigger wheel? What are your thoughts on a wicked wheel2?

Just look on ebay. Theres a guy selling prebalanced 10 blade shafts for duramax for $135

I'd rather buy from a reputable shop, eBay is goo for some things but I'm not chancing something that turns 80000+ rpms. It's definitely crossed my mind though lol!

I never really did any research on the wicked wheel, so it could be an option. I plan to port and polish yes. Just need balanced shaft and wheels

Ordered 10 blade turbine , 03 psd vanes and rebuild kit, still can't decide on a compressor wheel. I guess garret makes a billet 11 blade for pretty cheap, but the wetzel,batmowheel and wtzel are available too. So many descions! Porting and polishing are going to be in house!

What size vanes did you order? I see there are 2 different ones for a psd 15mm and a 13.2mm?

15.07 mm, I don't really know the difference, but these are garret oem parts so I didn't really question it, I guess I should measure stock lly ones now

If you get a chance to measure them please let me know I have been looking for the size!
