It was not difficult but tedious.
A lot of stuff must come off to get to it, including draining the oil and coolant.
I just finished putting rad hoses on and it would have been much easier to do both at once. After removing all of the obvious stuff, to the intake pipe, I removed the cooling fans but left the radiator in.
I just bought a new cartridge from XS Boost in Cleveland. I searched for a long time and they had the best price $340 shipped. I was willing and ready to buy the Chinese knock off but could not find it for this turbo.
The real bitch is that when I removed the tube that goes from the BOV to the intake pipe when I was doing timing belt and rad hoses, I apparently dropped the clip that holds the pipe down the intake. This is what took out my turbo. I knew the clip was missing but never guessed it somehow went down the intake,
Not my week...
