[QUOTE="CATDiezel, post: 1018949, member: 4387"] I gotcha. I know dealerships and the cool lingo they like to impose to make people have a warm fuzzy feeling. Balancing is a fine art. And an improperly calibrated machine is common in the industry unfortunately. There are only a FEW shops across the US I would trust with our $250,000 turbos we run and that discludes the actual manufacturer of our turbos. "ABB" THERE horrible at reworking a turbo... ironically the competition does a much better job with better equipment with more skilled technicians. So I'm conclusion. The balance is as only good as the calibration on the machine. Just like when I tune our 8000hp engines... that tune is only as good as the calibration on the emissions analyzer used for tuning. And it is a must that a calibration take place at time of tune. Actually I'm so anal about it I get the tune close and calibrate to get my final adjustments in place to ensure all sensors are dead on before I conclude the tune. The same is applied to a highly sophisticated balance. That's why most balance in inches per second. Or convert to mm per second. To be extremely accurate to balance in grams one needs a pretty fresh calibration on the balance machine. The reason I tell all this is because lately I have seen the word "balanced" used liberally here lately. [/QUOTE]
