So I've been trying to get my car running for a while now after an aborted swap from my local shop. Finally got it to a point where I could test fire the engine at least today. Well, guess what idiot forgot to remove the tape from the turbo inlet that was protecting it from metal shavings while I put in hood latches, THIS GUY!!! So here are the results of that test fire, and a pic of some sort of fluid coming up out of said turbo also, which I need help identifying.

Oh and make sure you retrieve EVERY scrap of that tape. You wouldnt want any tape to find its way into the intake period. Once you're sure all the tape is out I think it would be safe to start the car and watch for smoke in the exhaust. If you see bluish white smoke then you're burning oil and you need to shut it down till you find the leak.
