Pour oil into turbo oil inlet, spin turbo by hand a few times.Install the turbo, pull the EFI fuse and crank the car until you see oil pressure on the gauge.

Wait 1 min (for the starter to cool down)

then repeat 7 or 8 more times and then put the fuse back in and crank the motor over let it idle for 2 min. shut it off and check the in-out play again, as long as there isn't any, start it up again, let it idle for 2-3 min, then drive easy for about 5 mins and you should be good to go!

I'll add here, to make cranking easier you can also pull out your spark plugs so it will crank faster and put less stress on the starter.

Thats a good tip, i hadn't heard that before. On my wrx i just pulled the ignition fuse and cranked on it for 90 seconds or so, put it back in, and started it. I drove under boost for few minutes then drove normal. I didn't open it up until the next day. This worked well for me.

Isn't the whole point here to prime,install, pull the fuse and crank until you get oil pressure... Why would you need to do this seven or eight times?

You can build your arms and back by doing the whole process 7-8 times..:icon_razz

just pull out the efi fuse and just crank it. the starter will spin but the engine will not start. oil will get into the turbo.
