Default Where to get turbo work done?

Hey guise,
Where can I send my turbo to get a billet wheel fitted?
It's a BW s372r and I got a 72mm billet wheel that I'd like to put on it. The exducer is slightly bigger, so the housing might need to be machined.

I was hoping to send it somewhere else.

It's not a BW wheel, so I don't think they'd be too thrilled to work on it. But, business is business I guess.

Okay. Maybe list where you don't want to send it so no more people waste their time?

It doesn't have to be, but they have the machining already calibrated to perform that job with balancing quickly and easily, since they have a lot of those housings available.. I guess I thought the point was to be able to get it all done in one shot. Just because you have a billet wheel doesn't mean it shouldn't be rebalanced and machined.

But Grumblemarc is right. You may want to list where you don't want it sent so that your options may be narrowed down.

Performance techniques, pure turbos, and boost labs could balance wheel assembly or chra and machine your cover.

Look for a local turbo diesel shop, most of them have the ability to modify, machine and balance turbos in-house

Also will that wheel even fit?
Does it have the same shaft diameter?
Same hub height so the compressor nut will have sufficient threads to secure the compressor wheel?
