Omegis RA to Evo X swap progress
#31
6hrs into the day and still haven't yanked the RA turbo off yet. This is no easy job. Next time, I'll let a shop do the work.
The suck begins when you get to taking the downpipe off. Bolts are in weird spots.

I also plan on doing this shop, but Im going to a shop so that I can get the car back cause its still my DD. I plan to use the RRE adapter to fit the AEM intake I am getting for the car

Haven't done that. On last bolt I missed holding turbo to engine block. Why are these bolts in horrible spots? Even with more than enough tools, half these bolts are a PITA.

One bolt. Only thing keeping me from removing the turbo and I think it was cross threaded from the factory. Got maybe 3 rotations out before it seized. It's the one that is in the steel bracket that connects the turbo to the block.
Looking at the pic, start center and go down some to the hole flooded with PB Blaster.
