No, you can't, not properly. They need very precise balancing. I disassembled my turbo once and reassembled it after realizing I couldn't do any good with it apart anyway. I tried very, VERY carefully to put it together EXFUCKINGACTLY like it came apart and it would appear I got very, VERY lucky. I will never do that again after hearing how easily a turbo can become imbalanced and then tear itself apart.
