Did you get in from Aaron? If so why not just ask him?

 

[Jay633]

Yes. Kind didn't wanna bug him aha

 

[D.J.T.]

Well he could definitely answer your question if you email

as far as i was concerned when i bought my 57trim from aaron just be POSITIVE it is receiving oil, and you can boost away. Did you just put it on or have you had it on a while and are just wondering if its ok to boost it?

I put the turbo in, pulled efi fuse. Primed it then I turned knob and let it idle for 10 min, I drove it for about 2 miles and it sounds okay looks okay too. How do inmate sure oil is going through? And also yes I'm wondering when I could push the accelerator allthe way down without damaging the turbo

 

[D.J.T.]

It's okay. as long as theres oil reaching the turbo.

Just mat it already!

 

[Jay633]

Okay bUt how can I make sure oil is goin through

 

[MarkIII4Me]

Make sure the engine has oil pressure, pull the turbo's oil return line, if oil comes out, your good. You shouldn't have to remove the line. Just start to loosen and the oil will begin to push through the threads.

Way too much precaution taken here. If you said the car ran for several minutes then the turbo is well past primed. Only way it wouldn't be is if somehow the lines got blocked up. I'd say its fine. Flamesuit on!
