just got the turbo out and old mani off (took me forever lol) that bottom left bolt is a cunt to get to! had a look at the turbo and the blades are white, what does this mean? running rich or lean or something? the turbo is in excellent condition, no shaft play and no cracks on the wastegate :lol: i was quite surprised lol

anyway whats the torque settings for the bolts? also since I've taken the turbo out will i have to prime it again before staring up and how do i do it?

You can't tell the condition from the turbine blades as you'll be running lean when off the throttle and pottering about etc

Torque settings are 48Nm for exhaust mani to cylinder head, the others you just do rft

No you won't need to prime the turbo as there will still be oil in it from taking it off, unless you've drained it completely somehow.
