Brand new HPFP and Injectors come dry. What is lubing them? No, I can't see how you'd do any harm...

Do as you please but A) below is useful for a variety of reasons involving fuel repairs to bleed off pressure without dumping fuel all over your engine bay. B) is what I would do if all I was doing was trying to prime the oil pump. It's a lot of work to disconnect all the injectors and spark plugs. It takes 0 effort to reach down and disconnect the entire ignition harness from the DME.
I was talking about the SIB someone threw in the thread to disconnect injectors and then start car.

I agree HPFP comes dry but you won't crank it dry as much but yeah I mean it will probably be fine.
