SuperB Turbo side play

SuperB Turbo side play
I recently(1-2 thousand miles ago) installed a superb turbo with a bd ex manifold and ddp2 injectors. Initially I was surprised how much more the turbo whined. I am using the stock air box and a K&N filter and checked the filter minder often to make sure there was never a restriction. Lately the turbo hasn't seemed to be as loud. After dialing in my afc yesterday I pulled the intake to find what I thought was excessive side play, enough that I can make the inducer touch the housing although there was no evidence that this had happened yet.The turbo when new did not have very much side play at all. I reinstalled my stock hx35 and pulled the superB apart finding that there is little to no play between the shaft and bearing but a significant amount between the bearing and housing. Oil supply was checked finding it to be ok.I will be contacting BD on monday. Anyone have any advise?
