    Default what to do after new turbo install before turnng on the engine?

    hey guys,

    ive just swapped the turbo on my st165 gt4 to one i bought second hand that came from a supra. if just finished and its all been put back together. im just wondering if there is anything i should do before turning the engine over for the first time?

    e.g. sum people have said pull out the main cable from the coil to the dizzy and turn the engine over so it pumps thru a bit of oil and water thru the engine?

    any comments?
    thanks

    as you've already said, crank the engine with the dizzy disconnected, this will get oil to circulate around the engine and the turbo.

    And then fire it up. Nothing more to it.
