Especially when they are on a rear mtd turbo (banks) that you can't even get a saw in to cut them. I haven't actually attempted to remove anything yet out of total fear of failure. If I would be lucky enough to get the down pipe off the turbo I MIGHT be able to pull it loose from the joint half way down the firewall. The little "tabs" on the larger pipe are pryed up so it obviously has been removed before. Is there some magic rust eater solvent I can squirt on there? I only have silicone spray which helps once things are loose. But I think I will need some hardcore stuff due to the lack of leverage I will have over a 3" exhaust.
Assuming I can get the down pipe out of the way then I must be able to unbolt the turbo from the engine mounting bracket? And if I am lucky enough to get that far maybe I can slip the y-pipe assy down underneath? Then maybe I could actually unbolt the tranny and slip it out of the way to proceed in pulling the motor.
I am just forming a good plan of attack because I have plenty of time and about zero motivation at the moment. Once I see parts of turbo out of the way I will feel better about all the work ahead of me.
