Question About Turbos
#3
I'm guessing this is on your TurboII? I don't know too much about turbos that is why I don't fool around with mine but I would think if the turbine is not spinning at idle that that is fine. As long as it spins while you are accelerating. Maybe it needs to be oiled up a little or maybe it is on its way out...

is a non modified S4 turbo that i put on my gslse engine. it doenst spin at idle at all but with the engine shut off i can move it with my fingers. yes it have a little up and down play but the guys @ mazdatrix told me that it normal. i have a -4 line for the oil supply with no restriction because i dont know what to put on that. the line it self is smaller that the stock turbo II oil fee line and my car puts 45-60 psi of oil pressure in idle.
