Default Turbo change...

IV never changed a turbo on wrx (blobeye) before. Is it complex or pretty straight forward? Any advice ...

It's easy if youve got decent tools. Take some pics before you start take your time & be methodical. A good tip is soak all threads with WD40 the day before & then again just before you start.

Yep it's definately a job you can do at home with decent tools. I've done it a few times now, the first time is a bit daunting but it's really not that bad.

Just take your time
