I wasn't having any trouble building boost with my turbo when I removed it to install a new motor, 15psi at WOT no prob (stock turbo, stock motor). Since it's out I am looking over things, and I notice a little in and out play (intake to exhaust side) but no play in any other direction. There is no contact between the blades and any of the housing, no bent blades, and it spins freely even when pushed all the way to one side or the other. I haven't measured the amount of play, but I will tonight. I am somewhat new to turbos, is this anything to be concerned about. My motor ate a cam bearing and I just want to be sure before I put things back together. Thanks for your help guys.
