Tried it out this morning and it works fine. Didn't see any smoke into the boost and ran it hard, let it idle, and was fine there too. Taking the housing off after it cools down and will look at that too!

Great news. Hope it was just a fluke. Sounds like it may be a vacuum line deal, which is the best problem to have lol.

What do you think? There's a couple fine little marks on it but nothing you can get your fingernail on. There is some shaft play up and down but nothing back and forth. I'm not sure if some of those are from machining or not? I had this off another time and can't say if they were there then or not? Nothing in the silicone hose on the outlet for debris/dust.

Looks fine. Its not touching. it would be really obvious.

guessing you've got a vacuum issue if its still happening.
