Turbo help needed my friends!
 
Hey guys I need your help again, Well im getting my dump pipe made today and I need to figure out somthing that has to do with the oil drain, now I need it to point streight down however I cant seem to undo all 6 bolts holf the compressor housing to the hotside, now is there a special tool I could use to get this, the reason I ask is because one of the hotside bolts is right behind the oil drain flang and its a really tight space!

A regular open faced wrench should work. Should be 13mm or 12mm bolts. Free the 2 bolts you can, then loosen the remaning 2 as much as you can. You should then be able to rotate the bearing housing enough at that point to remove them completely.

Waited 13 minutes!! :D For mine, I "borrowed" a set of stubby wrenches, which make getting in there a little bit easier. They are really pretty small. You'll actually be able to turn the wrench once it's on the bolt too. Good luck there RmR.

Just get an old open end, bend it as desired, and then cut it. You will use it over and over. Maybe.
