looking for a how to on turbo removal/install?
Change gaskets while off or you'll be kicking yourself for not doing it. Important gaskets, exhaust manifold /head. Exhaust mani to hotside, gasket for o2 housing, downpipe gasket. All oem except downpipe, depends on the brand. Antiseize on the studs that you're installing or bolts.
Port the exhaust mani, o2 housing, and hotside while off the car.

If the green is bolted to a manifold and O2 already. Re-torque O2 housing, mani to hotside bolts and drop her in there. I wouldn't take it all apart
The just connect your lines and support bracket to it

take off the exhaust mani and downpipe... theres a bolt that holds the o2 housing to some bracket, unbolt it(1 bolt).. unbolt the oil return line and the oil line up top.. disconect the waterlines... also lower intercooler pipe comes off... after that, the turbo will pull right out... no need for taking out the radiator... however, if u have the stock heatshield on that goes around the o2 housing, GOODLUCK taking that off... haha, very easy instal tho
no needed but it makes it a heck of a lot easier to get everything out then work on it on the bench
remove radiator and fan
remove intake
disconnect dp
disconnect oil and water lines
" o2 connector
" licp
remove the bolt for the manifold bracket to block
remove the exhaust manifold nuts
take the whole unit out of the car and work on a bench. Re asseble everything and put it back in the car as one unit
i would use all brand new gaskets

Is it possible to take off the o2 housing support bolt without removing the downpipe? I am trying and think I might have stripped it. There's just no room with the downpipe still on the car.
