5th Day boosting, shaft play increase?
I had a brand new SC34 From titan motor sports. When i first got it, the shaft play was very minimal. This is my 5th day boosting now, and i've notice the shaft play has increased, would the expansion of heat cause it to increase? How would i know if its normal or now, and what should i look for to prevent further play? I have barely been driving my car, and when i do, i ALWAYS let it idle for at least a minute, (most of the time 2 for overkill) What do you guys think?

the turbo was rebuild incorrectly and improperly balanced from the get go. the mroe you use it the worse it will continue to get untill the blades hit the housing and stop total rotation of the turbo itself. Take it back and either get it repalced or refunded if was newly purchased. if not, go spend some $ on a new t3/t4 setup.

Who are you guy and why are you posting assloads of mis-information.. How do you know if his turbo was rebuilt improperly? Did you see it?
Sell a SC34 and buy a T3/T4?? WTF..
Now for the real questions. Is this in and out shaft play or side to side. I small amount of play is accpetable. I would say to monitor it throughout the next few days and see if it worsens...

that is a bunch of garbage. I agree with Drag_On. A sc34 is a t3/t4 idiot!

Well its side to side play, no in and out play at all.. I'm getting worried but then it may seem normal. I'll monitor it the next few days, what worries me is if Eric from titan will replace it if it was defective? I'm using a flamenco t Oil feed, and a stealthmode return line kit, i've had many people check my feed and its perfect.

if you have any issues let us know and we will take care of it - that turbo was brand new when sold to you so whatever warranty precision offers it is covered - i will have to double check with their warranty policy - just let me know
