I have taken mine off a couple of times to 1, change the headers and 2, to replace it for a FP Green (nice).

I will try to find the instructions I had and put them on photobucket so you can extract them. I have bought service manuals on disk off E-bay that are very useful.

Where abouts are you (PM if you prefer) Steve

I've done it a couple of times also and I found it quite simple.

The most important thing is to have the correct tools and lube up the turbo studs in good time.

I searched Scoobynet for previous threads on turbo removal which helped me no end.
