So figured out my injector issue, got basemap loaded up I went to prime the car, cranked it everything sounded fine but I noticed I didn't have any oil pressure after a few seconds so I stopped cranking, try this about 4 times each time I cranked for about 5 secs. I thought maybe I just wired my gauge wrong so I pulled the line off the sender unit it looked dry then pulled off the turbo feed same deal dry. The motor is built when I got it back I put in new oem oil pump, guides tensioner everything. I really am absolutely stumped right now and furious. Yes there's oil in the car if your curious. Tomorrow I'm goin to pull the sender off an crank it fast to see if any oil comes out to be sure but I really doubt it. Any ideas anyone ?

Are you running a filter relocation kit? Maybe you just have the lines hooked up backwards.

No man stock oil filter location running a trackforged kit. I have my t threaded into where the stock oil pressure sender is and I have my turbo feed and oil pressure gauge off that. I read somewhere about making sure the ground on the head Is secure to the firewall idk still dosent make sense the pump should still be makin pressure.

Did you try disconnecting the injectors and cranking it over until you build oil pressure? Did you fill the filter with oil before you put it on?

Check for the o-ring on the inside of the timing chain cover.

I did try cranking it like 3-4 times for nomore than like 5-6 Secs cause I didn't see any oil pressure, and no I didn't check the oring in the timing chain cover, your talking about the one behind the crank pulley?

vduber

Yes I had the injectors n coils unplugged when I was cranking

vduber

Filled the filter maybe a 1/4 the way cause I didn't feel like spilling oil out everywhere

Well I went back today pulled the plugs put alil oil in the cylinders , cranked it about 6 or 7 more times and nothing. I pulled the line to the oil Gauge off and you can feel air pulsations but no oil. Basically have given up and I'm all out of ideas.

Pull off oil filter and see if the passage is dry

May be better to pull pan off and check oil pick up
