    like all new/rebuilt turbos, you need to proof test the oil supply before allowing the turbo to spin. Normally we hold the wheel and allow the engine to fire a few times. after that, we make sure there is oil coming out the drain.
    I did not add anything on your invoice cause I expected all professional mechanics know how to do this.

    yes of course, but i am talking about getting your recomendations on turbo useability. if u would take it easy on the turbo for a while of after gaining oil pressure to the turbo or whether its ready to "hit the track". was only looking for your personal recomendations.
