Help me get this damn turbo out! (herndon VA)

Im tired, frustrated and covered in dirt/grease/rust. I have a 88 T2 and can NOT for the life of me get the damned turbo out, I have a breaker bar, assorted sockets, assorted wrenchs and beer. Im just about ready to give up for now since I just split my finger open on the heat shield . If anyones around here and feels like giving me a hand it would be much appreciated!

i just pulled a stocker for the first time yeasterday, deff a PITA, the little tabs bent over the nut's are very hard to get to and remove, after that you can throw an impact on the bottem ones with a universal from the top of the car, then the top bolts you have to get with a wrench
