Turbocharger Installation Check List    
*

Replace oil supply lines and fittings.  These lines often become plugged with decomposed oil which restricts oil    flow and drainage.
*

Do not used silicone or thread tape
*

Make sure all openings to turbo are open and not plug or capped off.
*

Shut off fuel or disable ignition and crank the engine for at least 15 seconds or until oil pressure is raised
*

Allow engine to fast idle (1,000 RPM) for 3 - 5 minutes to seat turbo seals
* Always let engine idle for 3 -5 minutes before shut down, otherwise the turbo will continue to spin without oil  lubrication and pressure
* When changing oil, be sure to prime oil filter
