turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 21y 8m 18d Gender: Male Posted 17/06/14 08:06 AM Share Posted 17/06/14 08:06 AM I put a KTS Billet wheel on 6 months ago WITHOUT balancing and it works better than it did with the original wheel.I highly recommend KTS.Just make sure when you put it on that you dont bend the shaft by overtorquing the nut.The turbine and compressor wheels are balanced. The issue does not lie with balance so much, It lies more with RUNOUT of the turbine shaft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue does not lie with balance so much, It lies more with RUNOUT of the turbine shaft.Got a link turbotrana from where you got your KTS from?When you say runout on the turbine shaft isn't the turbos shaft one single piece all the way through? Does the turbine side get a wobble in it somehow or am I completely off the mark here and it has to do with the amount of play? Haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
