Default bad to spin a new turbo by hand?

i just got my replacement turbo back from a local shop, they replaced the entire thing. i was slowly spinning the turbine by hand to make sure everything looked good, and it seemed stiffer/less willing to rotate than i had remembered. almost makes a slight contact noise, which has me a little worried. is it bad to do this, should I pour a litle oil into the CRHA? i'll be leaving it alone for now lol
