Answer:
Come visit as soon as possible. Call as soon as you can. No sooner is almost always followed immediately by a verb: No sooner had she finished her speech than the lights went out.
Both are grammatically correct: use of past perfect is not necessary because the no sooner... than construct defines the order. This NGRAM indicates that both are common, and that the past perfect form is preferred. No sooner had I closed my eyes than I fell asleep. No sooner did I close my eyes than I fell asleep.Mar 23, 2018
