so i'm doing turbos in my car and i keep reading all these threads on not properly priming the turbos so i was wondering how exactly do you properly prime the turbos? is it done prior to install or after? cause the last thing i need is to blow my new ones. thanks

dont connect the ICM's (ignition control modules) so it wont turn over
just crank it for about two minutes get the oil/coolant in them then connect the ICMs and start

Mind you, don't do it for 2 minutes straight. I usually pull the ECU, crank it over for about 10-15 seconds, and repeat 4-5 times.
