When you mean shaft play, are you talking about turbochargers or are you talking about playing with your gadget?:D

Do you see or feel any scratches on the compressor inlet? or turbine outlet? Can you move it more than a centimeter in any direction? Can the inlet and outlet spin in oposite directions (Celica-St162!!!) If not than it should be fine.

it feels to be around 20 thou or so, so it's probably fine. and about the shaft play thing, statistics have shown that nearly all males in the human race play with their shafts one or more times a week. but, i was asking about turbos.
