Help.. I think?
Trucks a 2004 ext cab 5.3 trick turbo. 14 psi. Heads and cam
Heading home tonight I sped up after turning onto the highway turning home " the light started to change " and in doing so i broke tracking a little I peddled through the light prob got in and let out 2-3 times but in a quick burst 30-65 maybe? Neways now when I hit around 5+ psi there's a noise in the front end almost sounds like a hub barring but only under boost over 5psi. And weirdly it sounds like it's coming from the drivers side... Any ideas?

Doesn't seem to have any vibration. And its only making the noise 5+ psi. It sounded like it's coming from the drivers side but could be wrong? I pulled the air filter off the turbo almost looks like a little wear maybe but Idk. Shaft spun great both ways and couldn't feel any play. Also believe my Pcv valve is no good so I'll be getting a new valve cover too :/

Looking at the turbo itself and to me the shaft has a good deal of play. And the housing is shinny where the blades would make contact? Only have maybe 3-4000k on the turbo but it is a cxracing one. There intro turbo. Not sure what to do from here. As far as that goes...
