Default Replacing the turbos

Is it possible to replace the turbos and downpipes without removing the engine. If so, what do I have to remove to get to all the various nuts and bolts. Time is not a issue.

Default Re: yes

Thanks, like I said time is not an issue and pulling the engine would be I think without a lift. Would removing the front fenders gain me anything?

fenders would do nothing, pulling the engine without a lift isnt very hard

Do you know if there is a general step by step for removing the engine. I have done it on many Chevrolets but they are pretty sdimple

I tried searching for Simmply's write-up but all I was able to find were mentions of it but no links. Does it still exist?
