haha.. thats funny.. ^ but just like Modena said, look at the inside of the housing and see if is scraped at all by the blades. Minimal shaft play is exactly that. I'm sure if you do a search you can check what the tolerance is for movement. Good luck, hope it works out for ya...

Yea man definitely no problem at all. It also helps loving these cars and being so passionate about them. This is how the ct Dsm guys are we are usually all at one members house helping out with the cars we each cover one another with diferent skills. I'm good with motors/drivetrains then there's the few suspension guys or wiring n ecu teckies. Or whatever it's just enough help to help us not hate these things.

what do you mean by smoke? like smoke from the turbo itself or smoke from the exhaust?
