Can you see any scrapes? The wheel looks good, not dusted or anything, and it doesn't look like it's made contact with the sides. I'm by NO MEANS a turbo expert though!

There wouldn't be any scrapes yet as it is freshly rebuilt and I haven't installed it yet. It seems like a lot of play to me, as much if not more than my old one which was scraping.

I might try another close up video with the shop fans turned off to see if I can hear the wheel hitting the housing.

You have to remember it's going to be riding on oil too.

If you have any in and out play, you need to take it apart and make sure all the parts are in the right way.

Looks like some in and out play looking at the vid.
