R32 Gtr Turbo Removal.

[Samuel Leonard]

i've removed the intake pipes and front turbo coolant lines and one oil line but i think the other oil line is under the exhaust manifold. can't get the bottom bolts off the exhaust manifold.

i've moved my power steering pump and still no luck. can't get a socket on them! getting pissed off!

i also can't crack any of my dump pipe nuts. i have a 14 mm socket on it and 13 is too small and 9/16 i think it is is identical to 14 mm. i've slipped around one of the nuts with the 14 and i've tried the blow torch and spraying lubricant all over it.

second year apprentice mechanic and struggling big time. any one that's done this before that feels like sharing tips or a hand would be so much help. i'm going insane trying to get on those bottom bolts on the manifold.

0431398657 is my number. i live in west beach sa and would be back on the job again at around 4 if anyone is free! at the movies and then pub until then. cheers

There is a set of oil water lines that stay attached to the turbos, so you just undo the ones that are easier to reach, no need to undo the inside turbo water line or the ones on the block etc. The dump pipes come out with the turbos, so dont remove them, just undo the two bolts on the bottom of the dumps that attach to the exhaust.
