Default Best Way To Prime A New Turbo?

I'm very close to pulling the trigger on a new turbo, just trying to decide which one to go with.

Once I have it installed how do I prime it before I start the engine? Pull the coil wire?

Not when you got a CD box! Bad things can happen... dodn't remember but internal stuff goes wrong and toasts your CD. Try unpluging CD too.

I would crank the car and not start it up; if that makes sense?

Then drive 100 miles without boost to break it in.
