If it works, why on earth would you want to change it and how freely do you THINK it should spin ?? If its working I would suggest that it spins plenty freely. Are the bearings gone, is there shedloads of play or endfloat on it. Theres a good chance your turbo is in fantastic condition with nice close fitting seals and that is why it doesnt SPIN FREELY.

If it aint broke, dont fix it.

but it sprays oil when you rev the engine so is definately not working properly.

where exactly is the oil spraying from the turbo and are you certain it is from the turbo and not from anywhere else.There are oil return and sender pipes that are attached to the turbo could it possibly be one of the gaskets from either of these pipes.I know these are stupid points to ask but if it saves you £200+ then its worth checking first
