I think there is one called "Brisbane Turbo and Tuning" - in woollongabba. They were reccomended to me - however from memory were pretty expensive..
The old guy I talked to (think he was the owner) seemed v knowledgable to me..

Motsons turbo and suspension on beaudesert road are pretty alright. They are at Coopers plains. If not go direct to garrett at archerfield.

Fair enough, they are a prick, and i'd hate to chip the ceramic exhaust wheel.
All of the CT26's i've rotated have been tight as, even after soaking in diesel for a week, they still need a knife blade hammered into the join between the core & exhaust housing to edge them apart bit by bit.
Whoever you get to do it, make sure they clean out all the carbon deposits in the joint, and apply plenty of anti-sieze to the surface to make it easy next time
Cheers
Phil

Just FYI CT20-B isn't ceramic 
I did mine, was quite hard.. To rotate the compressor is dead easy, the turbine housing was harder. Had to take it off first and then put it back on in the position I wanted.

The CT20B is meant to be ceramic

I strongly disagree.
The CT26 from the ST185 twin entry turbo was ceramic
The CT26 from the 7M-GTE single entry was steel
The CT20-B from ST205 is twin entry steel.
It's the pick of the bunch

Yep my CT20B has a ceramic turbine. I ended up going to the place at the Gabba and Philip did all the work for me. They also do high flow jobs there on the CT26 turbos for around 400hp so the CT20B should come up a bit better than that.
Also if anyone is interested they had a TA22 there with a 1j
