Can you move the wheel freely with your hand?? It should move at idle.

 

yep can move it with my hand but i was wondering if the intercooler pipes have to be hooked up and sucking in air to make it move am i right ???

 

No, the shaft is attached to the exhaust blades which turn no matter what is going on at the compressor side. It wont make any boost and will be hesitant to rev up because of the extra load on the engine and no power being added, it'll essentially be like running it w/ a really small exhaust, lots of restriction! Good luck!

 

It may not spin at idle though. That is really not an indication of anything you need to care about. But if you rev the motor a little the compressor wheel should spin. if not the turbo may be junk. So you have installed everything but the charge pipes? what parts did you put on what engine?

 

every thing but intercooler pipes on a ZC DOHC 1600
