Sorry, very late reply...

Turbo Technics in Northampton were the only ones I could find who would balance a turbo they hadn't refurbed.

Line I was given was if the turbo I built let go then any other firm would be screwed. Turbo Technics however also make the machine, so can take that risk. I turned up (by appointment) at 8:00am (or something) one morning, and they balanced it whilst I waited. This saved me the (heavy) postage and return costs, hence only £30 or so. I think they will balance one by post for £45 or so (from memory).

HTH, Pete
