How delicate is our turbos?

Hi everyone, this morning im cleaning my turbo inlets, and i felt like ive touched the wheel of my turbos when cleaning my turbo inlets with a microfiber. And also my microfiber kind of grips on the tip a little.

Then i proceed to test the spinning of the turbos with my fingers and check if theres any play. I dont feel any play. Is it okay to touch the turbos? How sensitive is it? Thanks guys.

You're not going to hurt them with your hand or a rag. Make damn sure you get everything buttoned back up correctly. The intake to turbo inlet driver side is a pain in the ass.

Sure thing. I turbocharged a Suzuki Hayabusa in 2000. Made 305whp on just 12psi. That bike was a riot. I went 207mph gps on it
There's turbo busas now making 800whp.
