once the engine is back in just get it running safely and then to a tuner to get things checked and adjusted as you dont want it over fueling and getting bore wash ,keep revs low 2k /2.5k max
what you got to remember once built it is theory a new engine running on a setup from a different engine if you follow
tell tuner its freshly built and needs setting for running in
i have built a couple of turbo engines and when i have put them back in the same car they have always been adjusted on the co2
old engines needing rebuilds will have carbon deposits with affects the flow of things , new engines breath different to old
