Starting the Engine
1. Refill the engine oil to factory spec.
2. Check all the hoses and wires connection, then reconnect the negative side of the
battery.
3. Turn the ignition to “ON” position 2-3 times to get fuel pressure. Then, check the
injectors and the fuel rail for any fuel leaks.
* Repair any fuel leaks before starting the engine. Starting the engine with a
fuel leak can cause fire in the engine compartment and can be very
dangerous.
4. Remove the ECM fuse and crank the engine to get oil pressure to the turbo. (Until the
oil light on the dash turns off) Check for any oil leaks, then reinstall the fuse and start
the engine.
5. While idling, check for any oil, coolant, or air leeks.
6. After inspection, reinstall the under cover and other stock parts that was removed.
7. On the initial run, be sure to have a boost gauge to check the turbo-actuator setting.
This turbo kit is preset to boost between 0.4kg/cm2 to 0.45kg/cm2.
It is very important that you monitor the boost pressure, and make sure not to over
boost. Over boosting can cause engine damage.
This completes the Turbo Kit installation.
Important!
•It is very important that you monitor the boost pressure, and make sure not to
over boost. Over boosting can cause engine damage.
•GReddy Performance Products, Inc. is not responsible for any engine damage
caused by over boosting (increased boost), modification to the kit, and/or
misuse of the product. NO WARRANTY is offered.
