Removing the turbo?

bmbenson04 · 03-29-2004, 01:04 PM

Anyone have any instructions on removing the stock turbo for a 1st timer with lack of mechanical knowledge. I'm sure I'll have help but i'm pretty impatient and hate having to wait on someone with enough free time to lend a hand. Getting the wastegate ported on Friday, this is why I'm asking. Tried searching this topic and couldn't find anything. Maybe I'm just not using the search feature correctly. Any help would be awesome and greatly appreciated.

you can sign up and view the thread here: http://www.tommarks.com/buffaloscoob...opic.php?t=617

or check scoobymods.com for turbo removal. All WRX turbos would follow the same basic steps.

Can anyone just tell me what all needs removed before you remove the turbo. I know the downpipe but what else?
