TurboTobz Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Should be some bolts or similar around the inside edge, remove them and any clamps, then a large cir clip for the compressor housing, and the v band style strap in the middle, a little bit of even tapping with a hammer around the exhaust side and it should come away, be careful that you don't attack one side more than the other and jimmy it off otherwise you may damage the fins.

TurboTobz Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 theres 2 locating pins on the comp housing side, the one I rotated needed one to be filed away and one was removed by popping it out with a pair of pliers and some force. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
