Not difficult. Start with all the small parts like air filter, "Y" pipe, hoses, etc untill all that is left is the turbos. Then the DP, oil line/tubes, and coolant hoses.

Don't think too hard, just start on it.

 

that's where i am at..... but you reckon that the turbos come out as a whole? or its best to dissect them up, and bring them out in pieces?

 

They come out together, I think there's 7or 8 bolt's ( nuts ) holding them to the manifold.

 

so i dont need to dis assamble the compressor housing.. brilliant! i figured that to repair or replace you dont need to pull out the engine, but iwanted to double check. Shortly i start on the project, i will try post some pics....

thanks.

all hints and suggestions are always welcome!
