Titan is an unknown quantity at this point
Turbochargers with journal bearings (i.e. NOT ball bearing) are supposed to have a small degree of shaftplay. This clearance is required for an oil film to form around the shaft and suspend it during operation.

Exactly how much shaft play does your perticular one have? Do you have a dial gauge to measure it?
