According to the wH1c manual the nut is 10 mm for the Bi-Hexagon (12 point) nut and 13 mm for the hex nut. AFAIK the sizes should be the same for the H1c.

DO NOT USE A HARDWARE STORE NUT!! I worked many years rebuilding all types of turbos. The hardware store nuts the threads are not perpendicular and can bend the shaft when you torque the nut . Ken

You need to go to a turbo shop for a new nut. That spins many thousands of RPM's and you don't need a loose hardware nut bouncing around. Scary to even think about.
