the race gap seals have a staggered section and go on the turbine wheel, I have one on mine

Not doubting your mechanical ability but don't turbo shafts have to be balanced so if your disturbing it it may need redoing?

As I got told, mark the wheels position on the shaft with something before removal, that way you can put it back in the same place.

i did the same painted the shaft and the wheel prior to removal, didnt ever have a issue

of course if your changing the wheel for a new one then they may be a issue

[jdavis]

Knew you'd have something in hand to get round it but thought I'd ask. Good luck with it

There's no issue in changing wheels as they are pre balanced.

As claymore says above .....each moving part in the turbo is balanced in it`s own right so when assembled it is still balanced......
