Quick Question Re: Turbo Gaskets

[KyuubiGTR]

Hey all quick question I got my car back from the mechanic after he replaced my turbo gaskets and the next day I was driving home and my front bar fell off and a ran over it.. So what I wanna know is do you have to take the front bar of to replace the gaskets? Because its never fallen off before and when I asked the mechanic if he took it off he got pretty nervous and denied it but he said he noticed it was loose...

Can't say I ever have had to. all depends on you piping set up but doubt you would need to take off the bar

[ARTZ]

Maby the mechanic for shits and gigglez loosend up the front bar as a sick joke lol.. jk

[KyuubiGTR]

so you can get the turbos out through the front without taking off the cooler piping??

[blue_vl_t]

Turbo comes out of the top. I'd say no

This shit is the reason I do everything myself even on my daily, I don't trust the dodgy kents.....

True that ^

I can see how this question can sound dumb..i know the turbos come from the "top" but I don't think it can fit straight up between the engine and the strut Tower so wouldn't it have to get dragged forward past my pods and hard cooler piping?

Yer bad if I could do it myself I would...and it doesn't help after driving out of the shop it turns out one of my turbos are blown but apparently that's pretty common after gaskets blow

He noticed it was loose? What a champ, be nice if some mechanics to go above and beyond and tighten some noticeble bolts/clips up geez
