   got a mk1 1998 vtr with stage one cituning turbo on it
   fitted it all up today all went on fine
   had no water or oil leaks all good
   but have a problem as the water temp light stays on and so dose the oil pressure light, next problem was that my bat died on me after afew start ups
   not even had the chance to run it yet.
   didnt know if any one has any ideas what could be corsing this i know im nt losing any oil pressure thow the turbo as its not smoking and im nt losing oil throw the bost hose, the only wiring i have done is made the lamda wires longer and moved the powerstearing pump down on the braket they give you, im gonna check all my earths 2mz and get a new bat didnt know if any one els has any ideas on wht i can check
   o ya to top it all off tonight as i had a dead bat the saxo locket itself with the keys inside it so i had to brake into my own car

   where are you running the oil feed and return from for the turbo.
   have you removed or used a take off piece from the oil pressure sensor port that is on the bottom left hand side of the block at the front of the engine??
   
   thats how i got the feed etc for my supercharged vtr and i had a dash board like a set of xmas lights, it ran fine though.

   Have you had any other plugs off? If so you mite have the water temp and intake temp sensors on the wrong way.. This can happen i know
   
   Oil pressure sensor is at front of block rite behind where your turbo will sit just double check that you have not pulled out of snagged wire..

    found out what is dickhead hear mixet up two of the oil pipe and the reason it wasnt turing over coz there was no oil pressure nd with no oil pressure you have no engine (Y) so new one for me, o well i guess u live and learn (dumbass)
