Hey guys i am installing a 16cm turbine housing today and i noticed that i need to remove the steel braided oil line going into the top of my turbo in order to get the last bolt out. If i remove this line is it going to dump alot of oil? And when i get it back together is there anything special i need to do to make sure that my turbo has constant oil still? I definatly dont want to hurt my turbo but i dont want to make it a huge job either as its my dailey and i will need it together tomarrow

 

no oil will come out of the feed line or the return line

 

Residual oil will come out but it is not going to poor out like the pickup is running.

 

ok, so i got the turbo out and now have all four bolts loose that are holding on the exhaust housing and now i have no idea what to do, i cant get it to budge and ive been looking around on here for some instructions on how to swap it. anybody got time to give a little description of what i need to do? idk if i need to pull the turbine wheel out or what. this is my first time ever doing a housing.

 

some people but the whole thing in the freezer over night. I stacked a couple washers on two of the bolts on mine then kept loosening the bolts on mine and it pushed the two pieces apart.

 

its gonna be stuck together from constantly cooling and heating it is not gonna be an easy task getting it apart try the washer trick.
