I am installing a new turbo and lines this weekend. Do you have to prime the lines or turbo before the initial start.
Thanks to everyone once again

No, the turbo will be oiled almost instantly after the engine starts. The main enemy of turbo life is overheating, the center shaft won't have a chance to start rotating with the airflow until it is oiled. Don't worry about it.
