i'm having a spare set of the stock turbos rebuilt which i am going to install. would it be easier to leave the exhaust housing and turbine housings attached to the engine but remove the remaing turbo assemblies and install the rebuilt items? at the same time i will be replacing the down pipe with a hks item.

also could someone tell me if the stock turbine blades are ceramic? i suspect i've lost a chunk of turbine blade under some extreme conditions on the track (i do reliase in this case one of the turbine housings may be ruined)

IMO it is easier to chang the whole setup othe wise you will have to clock the turbos into the right position.

take off, intake, smog pump, Y-Pipe and cross over, downpipe and then the turbos... that's all...

wouldn't it be easier to clock the turbos while in the engine bay
