i found the following,
west coast turbo - wants $400+ for balancing per turbo
dynamic engineering - refused, commercial only
ABB turbo - refused, commercial only
BD diesel - rebuilds only starting at $3-400
ADP distributors - machining starting at $80, rebuilds starting at $500, balancing chra $75
kinetic - rebuilds starting at $350, machining starting at $80
these are quotes for mhi td04 turbos
edit: list updated
edit: list updated again, gonna grab a rebuild kit and do it myself. ill send to ADP for the machining and balancing.

Looks like you knocked out every shop I was going to suggest. Sorry! Don't think I can help you there. Good luck!

You may know this already (some people don't) but ADP is the parent company of Kinetic Motorsport. ADP does all their turbo work in-house and work on many different makes and models of turbos.

so just an update,
i did end up going with ADP. i regret it. my turbos never got done, even after 3 months. got the run around every week. took them back and ended up buying from the states.
advice for others: go through a performance shop here like kinetic to send it to ADP cause they obviously dont care about individuals coming directly to them. just my experience.

completely opposite of the experience i have with ADP.
But i generally drop my turbos off, tell them what i need done, they call me and say its ready to roll, i pay the bill and walk out.
no hassles, no issues, the work requested is done, on time and always to my satisfaction.
no issues with ADP here, and i go right up to their front desk, no need to go through a middle-man.

i dont know...at least they didnt charge me anything.
