Okay, start by taking off your exhaust system. Remove all the IC ducting, TID etc., then unbolt the water line going to the turbo from the manifold (2 10mm's). Now unbolt the oil inlet line at the top of the turbo; 2 12mm's. Go to the front cover and unbolt the oil outlet, then remove the water outlet hose. Then simply just unbolt the 4 nuts holding on the turbo and it should pop right off. This process is ALOT easier if emissions have been removed, specificly the ACV (gives you alot more room to unbolt the top oil line).
