Turbo impeller play

I checked the intake side of my turbo today as part of my attempt to track down the siren sound emitted from the engine. Not to be confused with my seized release (TO) bearing squeal...
Anyway, I've tested the hooter (fine) and know I have a tired pass side inner driver, but not enough to make this noise - and no vibration/shutter what so ever. While doing the clutch today I checked the play on the intake turbo impeller. Damn thing has about 3/32" in/out and 1/32 side/side movement. This seems like too much.
Turbo is one of the last two things I haven't replaced on this car and in the last month I've done the alt., water pump and clutch. I need a break.
Thanks for any imput.
