For those of you who bought Turbo Lab turbos.

I asked if they balanced their turbos awhile back and how/what they use to balance them. They replied that they do not balance compressor/turbine assembly but each wheel/shaft is component balanced but it could be done for an extra charge...

Those of you that bought turbos might want to run them by Diesel Components and ask if they would be willing to spin balance the assembly or make sure it is correct. I've seen more than a few turbos come apart "due to balance".

Wow that's a shitty ordeal! I will definitely never do business with them in the future. Plus what I've heard about their customer service from some members on here it is definitely terrible

Definitely be wary of any 'too good to be true' deals especially when it comes to turbos. People will duct tape their eyes and ears shut to save a buck.

Yikes. I've never considered buying from them. But now I have a reason not to!

Does anyone here run a Turbo Lab?
