Chipped comp wheel causing boost issues?

[TYTILIDIE]

So, I have my WG rod in all the way and I can only make 18psi now. It was that I coulodk only go 20psi. I had that compressor cover off when I did my A2A last year and noticed the wheel has been chewed up a bit form a hole in the air filter maybe? Could this be causing my lack of boost? And if so, and Waller, you read this, how much for a new wheel?

yes it can and about 250 to install it. the whole assm has to be rebalanced.

although low boost is not usually due to damaged comp wheels. I've seen them eat up like a dogs toy and still make full boost
