Default Turbo balancing in the Leicester area

I've got a T34 that's being rebuilt this week but I want it balancing to give it it's beat chance when rebuilt. Who would you use, how do they prefer to receive the turbo, is it best to send without compressor and exhaust housing? I want the shaft and front wheel balanced in the body not just the shaft
Thankyou

are you building it ,is it an old shaft or new parts .

if its new parts you can balance it in core it its old part,you may find you cant get enought material to grind to balance it [as shaft balancing dynamic you can get behind the wheels to remove material first]

What? I will rebuild it yes, new seals and gaskets and re using the original 247shaft and the compressor wheel. I want it balanced fully built for best balance surely? Turbo technics sound the dogs so will probably send it there for £50.
