unplug fuel fuel pump/or unplug injectors and crank till you have oil pressure on the guage and oil flowing out out the turbo oil return pipe

Once your sure you've got good oil pressure, I would go back to basics check for fuel, spark & compression first. Also be sure you haven't accidently painted any of the earthing points, I've seen that catch a few out on new builds. You shouldn't struggle to start the motor even if its a fresh one. Is this motronic controlled?2000 B5 A4 Quattro Sport ~ 2.0 20V GT30R ~ Gone
