Question Exhaust blowing at up-pipe / turbo join.

I have a MY00 with the problem above.. Just wanted some tips on exactly how to get to the join / or pointers on the easiest way of tackling it ! Had a quick look and can see one bolt on the wing side - but the rest is fairly hidden.
[ If its a difficult job - I'll take it to the garage ! ]

take off your downpipe
then you can reach the thirth bolt wich connect's the turbo to the uppipe.
If you get yourself a new gasket it's easy to find out which bolt's needs to be losen up. It's not a difficult job but a sh*tty one.

Before you start with it i advice you to spray al the uppipe and downpipe bolts with some lubricant and let it stay there for 24 hours or more.

Plus gas is the lube of choice, if not WD40 will help.
