Remove Turbo from D24T.

[sonny]

Hi.

I Need some Infos, how to remove the Turbo from a D24T

Oil Supply and Oil REturn Lines should be no Problem.
The 4 Nuts from the Downpipe ... and the 4 Nuts on the T3 Flange on the Exhaust Manifold...

How are they Easy removed, Tried with a Ring Wrench, they are very hard, could´nt get it loose ... ? Impact Wrench better Idea ?
And how to get it off the Exhaust manifold ...

Is it possible to remove it, if the exhaust manifold is still mounted on the Engine ? (Only want to remove Turbocharger)
Will do it as easy as possible...

Any Tips are welcome
Thanks in Advance

It is possible to remove it with the exhaust manifold in the car. It may be hard to get an impact on most of the nuts though. Sometimes double-wrenching helps.

I've always been able to remove those turbo-to-manifold nuts without too much trouble but our cars here in the western US don't rust. Where you are, corrosion may be part of the issue.

Heat always helps. The turbo-to-downpipe nuts often take the studs out with them but that's not really a problem.

As a last resort, removing the whole manifold is no big deal, and those nuts almost always come off with minimal trouble.

A trick is to tighten the bolt/nuts before loosening. Just a little 1/8rmp til it makes a sound/klik

Hi

Thanks.
I got it ) (asked the Question to renew a Turbo for my Friends D24T)
---------------------------------------------------------------
This are the specifications of MY new Turbo:

Compressor Wheel Housing:
Inlet 50,5mm Outlet: 76mm
A/R: 0,5 Inch
Trim: 55
Comp. Housing Plange: Inlet 70mm Outlet 52mm

Turbine wheel Housing:
Inlet 74,2mm , Outlet 56,6mm
Trim: 58

:-) Do you think I will be happy with it ? (Will install it in 2 Weeks, including Intercooler and a Oil Cooler- 9 Rows are OK ? Or to small ?? - I Will remove the original Oil/Water Heater *lol*)
except anyone here says that i will not be happy with this turbo , because its to big/ to small (whatelse, don´t have a plan *lol*)

That turbo seems way too big.
Factory d24t turbo specs are:
compressor wheel- 42mm/60mm .42 AR
Turbine wheel- 65.5 mm/50mm .36 +/- AR (don't know exactly the AR)
The turbo I have been running for years:
Turbonetics super 60:
Compressor- 48mm/60mm super 60
Turbine- 58mm/49mm .48 AR
I have been happy with this turbo, turbine wheel could be a bit bigger but it spools good. I can see 10psi by 2200.
You can configure the exhaust housing any way you want. I chose to go with a 5 bolt to v-band.
