Sometimes those banjo bolts are very tight on the turbo. So, once the turbo is out of the car you need to loosen the banjo bolts for the coolant lines as well as the oil feed line. Putting the turbo into a bench vice is difficult due to the shape of the turbo. So, I simply place the turbo on the bench and use my impact gun (the same gun that I use to take off the wheel bolts that hold my rim onto the car) by just quickly pressing the trigger on the gun to loosen/crack the bolt. Then, I'll turn the cracked/loosened banjo bolt out my hand or use a nut driver with a 12mm socket at the end and turn the bolt out.
