Ok, I have the cranking figured out. There is a loose connection on the starter switch.

I recirculated the bov and the car will still not idle. It wants to kill. The car has a new intake manifold gasket along with the TB gaskets so that is not the problem. I still have not boost leak tested it yet though. I did a compression test on the beater and it went (4-1) 160-160-70-160.

Does anyone know what the voltage at the fuel pump is supposed to be? That will probly be the next thing I check.

The previous owner put copperspray on the exhaust mani-->turbo gasket. Would that smoke? I see a bit of smoking from it. Under boost, it will smioke out the gasket like it is not sealing. There is no smoke coming out the exhaust though. Is the coppersptay keeping it from sealing? It doesn't smoke at idle or normal opperating speeds but a quick snap of the throttle to spool the turbo will send some white looking smoke out. Doesn't leave the lock though.
