i've searched and found a few things but my oil line got clogged and it was enough to destroy a piston rod end cap so i hope my turbo is ok as well.... what am i looking for as far as the turbo still being ok?? shaft play? how do i test the turbo with it off??? any help would be appreciated.... and please check out my rebuild thread in engine topic, specs are in my profile
thanks

send it off to the professionals. if it ran dry it probably warped the shaft. meaning it'll need a total rebuild.

the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.
as long as it spins freely it should be fine.
