the chra is the turbos center section, it houses the bearings and the thrust bearing. when i installed my new turbo it had no play at all and spun freely.

but after 5 mins on the car and idling it now dosenot spin as freely, it could be nothing, or i could have goten debri inside the scentersection form the machine work i had to do to it.

so my friend hooked me up with a rebuilt center section incase mine somehow got damaged

is it a possibility the turbo isn't getting oil?

its deff getitng oil i pulled the feed line to verify that. its wierd when i shut the motor off and if i spin the blades by hand after a few seconds they free up.

but soon as i start the motor it does the same thing, it may be to much oil my motor makes 60-80psi of oil presure at idle, so i may try a restrictor and see what happens but i shouldnt need one, since im only using a -3 feed line.

first thing int he morning im gonna pop off the compressor and turbine housings and see if i see anything wrong, if not i will take the wheels apart and inspect the chra to see if there is debri or anything inside, and if i have to i will just replace the chra witht he rebuilt one i just got

any wich way ill have it back up and running tommorow, worst case senario is i put the 67mm turbo back on and swap the .82 housing off the 60-1 onto the 67
