as above, just fitting new turbo, and want to turn the engine on the key first to pump the oil around before starting.
however, is there somewhere i can disconnect the ignition rather than undoing the four coils?

thanks

ian

From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?

Or the ign amplifier is on the drivers side strut tower along with the map + boost solenoid. The plug for it is facing the engine, and rectangular in shape, sort of. Can be a little fiddly to remove.

and it wont register any faults with the ecu unplugging it, which i think unplugging the crank and cam sensors might? Probably wont make any difference anyway
