Default it's alive again!!!

finally got the car restarted. 1 tsp of oil down each sparkplug hole and let it sit for an hour. first try it started right up. wahoooo!!! took it for a test drive and boost to 6-7 psi. doesn't spool quite as quick as it did without the downpipe, but it's very quiet now and i'm not boiling the clutch fluid. i drained my oil since i washed my cylinders so much with fuel.

you don't think i could've done much damage trying to crank it ten or so times flooded so badly as i was? car seems to boost fine and i'm no spewing oil or anything out of the tailpipe.

i'm running 1/4inch id fuel hose for my oil lines. i know they can handle the psi, but what about the temp of the oil running through them? they seem to get pretty hot.

i ended up reseting my safc to 98lo99hi and -38 1k-4k, -37 4.5k, and -36 up. it tended to stall when stopping at -40.

thanks to everyone that posted helping me to get the car restarted.
