Turbo is mounted by 4 bolts..that secures it to the engine..so it can spin and eat small puppies.
I personally use mine to Julienne vegetables!
sort of a Rotary Moulinex!..(I had to..just had to!)
Please be more specific so we can actually help you!...(or I;ll start cooking again..lol!)

"Turbos" probably means twins, so I'm going to assume FD.

You can download the Factory Service Manual for your car here:
http://foxed.ca/foxed/index.php?page=rx7manual

Please, when you ask for help, use proper sentences, spelling, and give as much info you can about the problem. For example, state the year of your car. There are also no words "cn", "pleez", "strugglin" and "1".

Haha, mine eats caterpillers and poos out butterflies.

I do apologise mister english teacher, I will keep my grammer in check!
How would you like the spellings? English or US?

She's a 92 efini (fd) sequential!

I have had the turbo pack out before, but just can't remember how many bolts held it on! Also im working with the engine in the bay! Got 4 bolts out, haven't unbolted the exhaust from manifold and haven't unbolted the oil returns yet.

Just had a crap day, that day! Lost my keys, steering lock is on and I found out I have got a snapped spring on the front right. My shocks are jic magics and they don't sell them in the uk which is great (sarcasm)!!!

Cheers for the posts, hope this is better information, spelling and grammer for you all!

There are 4 bolts holding the manifold to the engine. There are 8 bolts which secure the turbos to the manifold, two of which are in the middle between turbos and are a real pain in the *** to remove.
