Contact Ken at Phoenixturbo.com. You send them your turbo, they inspect it, 2-3 later they call you and let you know what needs to be replaced and they give you your qoute. If you do not want them to fix it they send it back free of charge. Great service,1-2 week turnaround time, everything balanced within a .25 of a gram.
