Default Turbo question.

Here's the post on Ebay
"This auction is for a VW/audi kkk k03 used turbocharger. This turbo fits VW and audi 1.8t and 2.7t engines. This turbos compressor spins freely and has a little shaft play which is normal in these models. This turbo is oil and water cooled for maximum reliability. I was planning on using this turbocharger in a custom set up and i will include the fittings and flanges that i had made to fit this turbo. This turbo would be great for a custom set up or a replacment for you stock. Email me with any questions. "

The problem is "has a little shaft play which is normal in these models" is this true ?

Default 1.8T & 2.7T k03s are different, first of all

second, there is a tolerance figure for shaft play, but it is VERY minute.

I believe there is some shaft play in the KO-3 model. That why KO-4 is favor since it had less
