Hey guys
Just got done with my evo 3 swap and went to prime the turbo. And I cant get it to turn over at all. The battery is charged. The plug wires are in correct firing order. All battery connections are tight. Suggestions please. Starter or starter relay?
 
I took the battery to have it load tested and its fine. I go to start it and the starter relay makes a loud buzzing noise until I push in on the clutch then it stops. Do you think the relay is bad?
 
Did you disconnect your battery while you were doing your swap?

Check your fuses you might have blown one.

It's not likely that after a turbo swap that the starter relay or starter will go bad.
 
Yeah, all the fuses are ok. I pulled the relay and it tested bad. I thought the same thing that its odd that it would go bad right now
