Question disassembly of engine

Hi
i am in need of some help pulling apart my engine
its a series 4 rx7 13B turbo, and i am currently having trouble getting the exhaust manifold off. Do i have to remove the turbo from the manifold first, or can i do it after?
I have taken off the four main bolts that hold it onto the block. Is there any others that im failing to see coz i cant get it off?
if you need more information please ask, and any help on this is appreciated greatly
please email sexssive@hotmail.com with any information or just reply to this thread. thanks!!!

taking the turbo off will just make it easier to get in there,but if youve got the 4 main bolts/actually,nuts(the ones that are on the block/housing) you should have no problem taking the exhaust manifold off.Just make sure all the hoses and oil lines ect... are disconnected.
all i can think of is that the sealant/silastic of some kind is holding it there.
can you even wiggle it a little bit?
