mississauga,
ok, the t-25 just went a few days ago. I am installing a e16g this weekend. I ported the exahaust manifold, turbo and 02 housing. Is there any preperation work i should be doing to ensure everything goes ok during initial start up? besides priming turbo before restart. keep in mind the old turbo did blow.
 
Make sure that oil feed line is nice and tight with no leaks. And make sure you crank the car for a good 15 seconds before letting it start. Theres a million ways to keep is from starting, easiest is to just unplug the coil. Of course there will be 10,000 other opinions on the easiest.
 
If it were ME....I could change the oil in the car too.

You never know if you had a piece of metal circulate.

Just my 2 cents :thumb:
