Yesterday i discover a coolant leak from the turbo, so today i wanted to take off the mani and turbo to get to the turbo line. I took out the air filter and pipe, intercooler piping, the 8 nuts from the manifold, all i can see that is left are the down pipe nuts (cant get to it yet cuz i dont have a 14mm socket that is deep enough). Is there anything else that i need to remove to take the mani and turbo out?? Does anyone know where i can get the step by step guide to replacing the turbo lines? Thanks for helping!

get some glasses, if you cant see what's holding stuff on you arent looking hard enough.
you dont need an FSM to remove a turbo.

You can't do it yourself. You need special tools like knowledge and deductive reasoning and logic. Call up your local garages and make sure they have the tools first. Shouldnt charge you more than an hours worth of work.

make sure you post here when you're about to change a spare tire on the side of the road. Could get scary.
