How long had it been since it ran? Journal bearing turbos sometimes can have a bit of play like that if they sat for a while and the oil is all drained out of the bearing....but on a turbo like the black that amount of play would prolly have me a little worried! Def send the video to FP and see what they say.

Was probably about 10 minutes since it ran I think. It never hadthat kind of play in it before, and I've only put maybe 4-5k on it.
