	Could somebody please give me some general things to test when looking at buying a 2nd hand turbo. 
 
I know to wiggle the shaft left and right & up and down and check for movement.  Should be less than 1mm.  And I can spin it to make sure the bearings aren't noisy or the wheel doesn't scrape on the housing. 
 
I am not sure if I can spin it quick enough to make the bearings make any noise however. 
 
What else to do?
