I got a 14b that has been sittin around for quite some time. I'm almost ready to put it on my 2g as soon as i get my walrbo 190 pump, MBC, and full 3" exhuast put on my Talon. Question is. After the 14b is totally hooked up and bolted onto the car and all the lines secure. Don't i need to take out all the spark plugs and then turn the car over to get oil in the turbo. And then put the spark plugs back in and start as normal?
 
Yes, crank the motor over a few times to get the turbo primed. If you fire it up right away, that turbo will start spinning, even under vacum at idle.

pull either your MPI fuse, ignition coil pack plug, or your injector harness clip. either way, crank her a couple times then turn her on
 
And is it gonna be normal for it to start smoking and what not? I just dont want anything to go on and have to deal with taking the 14b back off and putting back on the T25 and all this crap. WHen its on i want it to stay on haha.
