Turbo / uppipe removal
Just for future reference I need to check out how to remove the up-pipe and turbo.
Up-pipe: Remove turbo heatshield. Undo two bolts/nuts where it joins to the exhaust manifold, 5 under the turbo (2 studs into a mounting bracket, 3 bolts through the turbo?)
Turbo: Undo up-pipe as above, undo 5 bolts/studs to downpipe. Are the water and oil connections all flexible so the turbo can be put to one side, or will they need disconnecting?
Cheers

Oil and water will need disconecting also if your planning of moving it far, it simply wont move anywhere without damaging the oil feed pipe, for whats its worth you might aswell. Also you might have to jack the engine up off the drivers engine mount to get a standard up-pipe out.
