TT 225 turbo bolt removal how-to
My TIP ripped at the turbo inlet and sucked part of the TIP in and damaged the blades a little and the turbo started sounding like a siren. I have started pulling the turbo but can't seem to get this bugger out I have tried anything that's a 13mm to get at it, any tricks or what tool worked for you? It is the bolt that secures the turbo to the bracket.

I finally got it out, I kept soaking it everyday for over a week with PB Blaster and used a looong extension and a Universal Impact Joint Socket Adapter which has way less swivel allowing me to put pressure on it. I had to go thru the passenger side wheelwell and I had it out in seconds. I put it back in but I loaded it with copper anti-seize just incase future removal is needed.
Got it at Harbor Freight:
