Default Changing Turbo
Right so my old turbo is now off and i have my spare to put on.

The spare turbo has been sat for a while is there anything i should do before i put it on like pour some oil down the oil way to lubricate the bearing or something or just bang it on and start her up?

Thanks

Crank the engine with the plug leads off to get oil to the turbo before you start it.
