I have a strange feeling that if I don't do this all in the right order, I'll have to keep dropping the turbo over and over again to get it right.

Should I install the cooling lines onto the turbo first and the oil feed lines on first?

Can I mount the turbo with the 4 mounting bolts first? I don't want to bolt and unbolt repeatedly to get this right and tear up my new gaskets while doing it.

Turbo is an E316g

Thanks
 
When i install a turbo i usually put on the coolant and oil lines on the turbo first. I then just start the 4 manifold to turbo bolts. When they are started i bolt the drain to the pan. Tighten the manifold to turbo bolts a little at a time till its all sealed up. Then finish hooking up the oil feed and rubber coolant lines.
