Trying to remove turbo without removing exhaust manifold, wastegate or downpipes. Have gotten three of four hot side inlet to manifold bolts off & three of four hot side exhaust side bolts off.
The remaining two bolts are being a PITA. Anyone got any hot tips on removal procedures?
Hot side inlet to manifold is top left bolt, its a 15mm bolt but a regular spanner nor socket can fit in their. Have tried a slimmed down open end wrench but its getting hung up.
Hot side exhaust to downpipe is bottom right bolt 14mm, seems theirs a recess in the downpipe to facilitate a socket but i haven't had success getting a socket & knuckle into the small space.
If & when I get theses suckers off I'll keep you all posted on how to strip & rebuild a k24 turbo. Might even throw on some k26 parts just for fun.
Thanks
Trev.
