Default Turbo removal(classic)

Has anyone got a link to removing the turbo.
I could do with one that lists tools, procedure, gaskets, basically everything involved.

Thanks Bob

Probably best to drain the engine of coolent.....you gonna lose a lot of it out of the turbo feed anyway if you dont.

Remove the following in this order
intercooler and boost pipes from turbo,
intake pipe banjo
turbo heatshield (8mm maybe 10mm)
downpipe (14mm)
water/oil feed (12 or 14mm) (you might want to slacken off the oil banjo bolt in the head enough to move the oil feed out of the way)
up pipe (14mm)

new gaskets can be had through mark@lateral (uppipe > turbo, downpipe > turbo)

Good impact 6 sided socket set, spanner set (adjustable head ones are really handy for the heat shield)

Good luck this was the first job i've ever done on a scoob i took photos as took things off so that i knew where they went when i put it back together.
Had trouble with the two nuts under the turbo other than that not a bad job really

Once again good luck mate
