you need to slowly heat up the turbo and the bolts with a torch. better make sure there is no wires or oil near it so you dont set anythong on fire. i had a fire proof blanket i put on the overflow tank and some wires and a bucket of water close by. dont heat it up too much because you can weaken the metal of the turbo. then the turbo mounting bolts should loosen
