Rebuilt my turbos with brand new stock char's. They've seen two years on the road and no more than 15-20,000 miles max. The engine sat for 6 months basically untouched since the car got wrecked. Engine sustained no damage. My LH turbo spins freely and does a few revolutions after I spin it by hand. The RH however will only rotate as while I'm physically turning it. There is no binding on either and basically no shaft play. I sprayed WD-40 on both sides of the turbine and it spun easier but still would not spin freely.
I'm thinking that once some hot oil gets in there it will get it going but thought I should ask to be sure.
