does the manifold need to be removed for turbo removal? I have an FP red that needs to go out for new oil seals. Until watching this, I was expecting to remove the turbo from the bottom.

had to remove my turbo last week, put it up on ramps since I didn't have a lift available. The J-pipe and oil return line are pretty difficult to remove from that angle, tight space.
So when reinstalling my turbo, I probably shaved off about an hour by bolting the j-pipe and return line on the turbo before dropping it in. Gotta be very careful if the radiator is still in, but I got it installed and barely touched it! So just a thought in case anyone has to do it pretty low to the ground without a lift.
