Need some advice,
 
So I have an 04 f-250 6.0 and I recently took it in for an oil change. That happened about a week ago, heard a weird noise coming from my engine. Turns out someone put a bolt and washer in my intake. Fucked the turbo, impeller is beyond beyond repairs. I went though charge pipe found shaving from the bolt/impeller in both hot and cold side. But nothing in the intake. Should I go deeper in findings?

Now the best question, where would one find a new turbo at a reasonable price?

Part two; what's the best way to remove the turbo? Haven't done that before and don't want to mess anything up.

Thanks in advance!

176,253 mileage.
New hot side and child side charge pipes.
Sinister 4" turbo back exhaust.
Performance tune from sct.
AEM child air intake

Getting the turbo off isnt bad. Putting it back on sucks a little. Tie back the exhaust so its out of the way. Other than that its just a little bit of wiggling thats required. Also, i found it easier to leave the pedestal bolted down and just take the turbo. The rear bolt on the turbo is the hardest to get to but the other 2 are cake.

Why replace the turbo? Just replace the impeller with a wicked wheel or batmowheel. Unless your impeller housing is destroyed too?
