If the exhuast is spinning seprate from the intake then you really got a problem.They are supposed to be connected solid.

I responded to your PM, but I also just had this thought... These are floating journal bearing turbos which means the shaft spins in the bushing and the bushing spins in the housing. The bushing probably just hasn't centered up yet and has a bit of drag. Like I said in the PM, as long as the wheels aren't hitting the housing, go ahead and run it and see if it makes boost. If it does, then your
