turbo balance
ok, ive recently started trying to replace the exhaust manifold on my car. 1 of the bolts wouldnt come off, so i ended up pulling the manifold and turbo assembly out for better access. in the process of getting this bolt off, i think the housing twisted. now bent-twisted, but swiveled. so i loosened the copper band clamp on the turbo housing and twisted it back to the right spot. what im wondering is, how easy is it to damage or unbalance the turbo? i guess its a pretty sensitive piece of hardware, and im wondering if i could have messed it up by trying to get this bolt off. i used a hacksaw, hammer and chisel, and vice grips. eventually cut through with the hacksaw. any thoughts or ideas?

Re: turbo balance
As long as you didn't mess with the bolts that hold the turbines on you will be fine.
