take out your fuse to the ecu and crank your car a few time so theres oil pressure in your turbo

---- that fuse ---- unless the turbo is brank spanking new.

just make sure your fluids are good and start her up and just check the engine bay for any leaks and be ready to shut it off. nothing to worry about. if it runs shitty at all dont beat on it might be something serious like an injector or something along the lines of having your ---- die.

but if it starts up and idles fine your good to go. post some pics!!!!!!!

Few suggestions..

Leave oil restrictor wide open at first close it as necesary
i would pull the ecu fuse to prime the turbo...takes 2 minutes
have an extra set of plugs lying around...can never have too many extra plugs
Double check vac lines and make sure couplers are properly tightened
MAke sure bolts to connect turbo, dp, mani are tight

buy a tial wastegate when you can afford it, unless SSAC has come a long way, it'll just bite you in the *** in a matter of time. Remember noob, tuning is everything! But so far good job.

Make shure theres no oil leaks .. chek back of the block where you tapped in to get the oil from
chek the oil drain also just to be shure .. and as already mentioned just check all the fluid levels
