RE: newer motor wont fire up

You should hook up a scanner and check for any ECU codes. May be not starting because of a bad sensor.

and whats the best way to unflood the motor if possible?

if I happen to lock my engine in a nitro r/c car I just remove the glow plug and turn the crankshaft(with pullstart) until most of the fuel comes out. lol

I don't know how you can do this with a real car :\

RE: newer motor wont fire up

before you put the turbo on the car did you ever try to run the new motor without the turbo kit?
