Default No oil pressure on first crank

your post is a little bit confusing but my first thought would goto bad oil pump.

Hmm.. Worked fine before i turboed it.

Basically, i took the leads out, so no spark. I crank it over, but it has no oil pressure at the gauge. It stays on 0.

So i un hooked the gauge, and just left lieing into a bowl, and sucked on it, while cranking , and its now dribling oil when cranking.

you should be seeing some sort of pulse. Is there a buildup in the system? I'm still thinking of oil pump.
