Seriously another turbo this is why, a turbo that has extreme shaft play specially the in and out type and up and down (for that matter any extreme play at all) is toast, most likely if you were to take it apart you would probably find signs that the previous owner did many hot shut downs and the CHRA is coked up and the carbon deposits have chewed away at the turbine side of the shaft rendereing it a useless paper weight, reason being is becasue you would have to replace the shaft which is one piece with the turbine wheel and is very expensive even if the turbo were FREE second you would have to buy a new compressor wheel which cost money to but not as much as the turbine?shaft/wheel which is one unit.......FYI Key here to anyone reading this is to rebuild your turbo at the very first sign of any kind of play.
T25g rebuild kits can be had for $75 balancing the shaft about $30 so it cost about ~$105 to rebuild a turbo that has very very minimal play that wasn;t abused but one with tons of play a rebuild would probably run around $700 dollars or so depending on if new or used better condition parts are used.
