[Biturbos4] Turbo replace - engine removal -- DIY?

[Richard Harris]

Keman,

I can't speak for Simpply, but I am pretty sure he's tried everything.  Now,
for the most part, I think he just drops the subframe for turbo upgrades.
>From what I understand, with experience, pulling the entire engine can done
quickly. This also allows one to install a stronger (RS4, Spec, Southbend)
clutch, examine the turbo oil feed lines, and install stronger engine
mounts.

HTH,

Richard

Well there you go. Even he takes the engine out.

You do have to perform a 4 wheel alignment afterwards though. The rack and
the tie rod ends and whatnot aren't touched, but the subframe itself is
slotted and can make a huge difference in any direction.
