Need to repair a GTX42R...turbine wheel was chewed up a little :)
They will only be able to clip the damage off. Your best bet is to just call or email a Garrett vendor (ATP is good) and have the model and serial number off of the serial badge and get a replacement.
Getting it "repaired" will only reduce it's efficiency. There are (before some acts like they know something I don't) companies that can weld the wheels, re-cut them, and balance them like new; BUT it's not cheap and I'm not sure how the new material will handle our rotary EGT's.
If it were me, I would opt to send it in for a replacement with ATP.

I think this is what Majestic's contact does. Though now that I think about it, that process may be on the back side of their business. They may just offer you some credit for yours towards a new or reman CHRA. The tractor pull guys that do a lot of business there seem to be ok with it, and they're melting turbines too.
