I feel horrible for not taking as many pics as I should have but I was in the zone… the busting my knuckles and getting tired of my car zone.<\/p>\n
I’ll put a super generic list of the order I did things.<\/p>\n
As a starter I’m not liable for anything on your car. This is strictly what I did and the car was on jack stands(x2 only front) in my garage. I have a basic tool kit but the only special tools I have is ratcheting wrenches that came in help!<\/p>\n
Tools I used:<\/p>\n
Wrench\/Socket sizes- 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 19mm<\/p>\n
Rachet extension(s)< plural!<\/p>\n
Rachet joint<\/p>\n
Pry bar 8″
\n1. PBS Blast or Liquid Wrench Penetrating Oil the whole exhaust\/turbo side… of its a bolt if should be drowning in this stuff. Let it sit for awhile before you start working on the car. I let mine sit for maybe 3-4 hours only because I was eating and getting last minute things.<\/p>\n
2. Remove intercooler piping as well as air intake on that side. Also remove the stock recirculation BOV.<\/p>\n
3. Next remove the vacuum line tube on top of the turbo.. should be a couple 10mm bolts and I literally pulled it out for the two lines that went behind the block. Also unclip all plugs around this area.<\/p>\n
3. Then I took off the all the intake piping off the front turbo. It will be 2 parts to it.<\/p>\n
4. Will be remove downpipe from turbos. Then remove upper downpipe 3 bolts and the valve will fall off with it… after that you should be good octopus around and loosen all the bolts to the turbos and manifold.<\/p>\n
5-10. Loosen ever bolt on the manifold and downpipe as well. You will want to take off front turbo. Then middle section<\/p>\n
. Then rear.. then all the bolts should come off fairly easy..
\nOf course this is easier said then done but I didn’t take enough pics to make this accurate<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
