Need A Little Help

[7yphon]

I bought a 2nd hand rebuilt T3/T4 Hybrid by Garrett off a friend "http://www.jshop.com.au"

anyway I need help to take the turbo off I have the head shild off and the pipes and shit off.

I need to know where to go from here as from when I look at it the screws are in shit house pos, and some seem to be blocked by the turbo.

Also some of the screws are not comming loose I guess a little CRC on them will help and a little knock with the hammer to get the rust out.

can somebody please guide me...

cheers

unscrew the oil drain clamps from underneath the turbo - that ones easy

then use a socket set to get the other 3 eye bolts off (oil in, water in/out) not much oil will come out but coolant will spew out

the water line at the top/back of the housing next to the exhaust manifold is the hardest to access, i unscrewed the 4 turbo to ex manifold bolts most of the thread so the turbo came forward a bit to give room to get a socket/ratchet back there

then i actually undid the two bolts on the flange between the front pipe and cat and took the turbo/front pipe all off like a snake out the engine bay did this cause the 6 bolts onto the dump looked easier to get off with more room

Was it hard to undo the screws what did you use to get them loose of lots of force?

[inissane]

which ones?

[7yphon]

Just any of them I have all ready had two screws snap on me one on the dump pipe and one from the heat shild

[inissane]

yeh the ones to the dump seem to snap a bit (didnt for me) but i found those 6 pretty easy cause i had the whole turbo/dump out of the car to take them off, i replaced all those studs/nuts when the new turbo went on might be a good idea (from gcg)

the 4 nuts to the ex manifold come off pretty easy with 17mm ring spanner they wont be a prob

Sounds like a visit to Bunnings tomorrow

Hey I have relised there is no little valve for the Aucuator???

WTF

[7yphon]

coolant will spew out

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

It sure f**king did and now I have to buy more coolant :s

might want to read my guide on my site: http://www.project32.net/tutorials.php It's not a T4, but you might find some useful tips and pointers if you get stuck.

Removing the turbo process will be the same.
