Just bought a TDO5 18g and wondering if there is any tips or tricks I shoud know or do before I start this project. I have the vfaq and some other info. on the install but if there is anyother tips u guys know lets hear em' thanks
 
make sure you prime the turbo after everything is together before starting the car. Good luck.
 
What he means is, pull the MPI fuse and disconnect the plug from the coil pack. This will prevent spark and fuel. Now turn over your engine a few times to get some oil running through the turbo. Return the fuse and plug. Start up and go.

Basically you want to have oil already in the turbo before you start up for the first time. It helps to keep the longevity of the turbo.
