Default Help fresh built h22 no oil pressure

I just finished my H22 build and I added 6.2 quarts of oil, thats what it called for. I cranked it about a dozen of more times and im gettin zero oil to my turbo and oil pressure gauge.

how likely is it that a pump would go bad?

start the engine. sometimes a fresh build with a dry pump and oil filter will take 3-5 seconds of running to build up pressure. the cranking rpm may not be enough to prime the oil system.

I already tried that I let it idle for about 10 seconds, Im pretty scared to run this thing with no oil.
