HTT part Q

[Turbotug]

Leave the pedestal. The nuts are 9/16? heck, I should have that memorized, but I don't.

The hard one is the oil drain. Go to the autoparts store and get a 1/2" DISTRIBUTOR WRENCH. Undo it under the charger.

FWIW, all the hardware on my HTT was metric. The nuts holding the charger to the pedastal were 15mm.

And the distrubutor wrench would make this a bit easier, but I got by with a crows foot.

Yeah, they're a PITA. And some crazy SOBs seem to be pulling theirs once a month.

Uh, no thanks!

I know someone that resembles that :angel:

i had a hell of a time with mine before the new intercooler now it is still tough but it is better with new tubes. with stock intercooler i finally had gotten it to work by gettin as much as possible out of the bottom boot then i epoxied the boot to the intake tube and clamped it. then just used the clamp on the turbo outlet never had a prob comin off there cause of the lip. also if pcv is not rerouted the oil makes it slippery. just a couple of quick fix ideas. but the new outlet is a good idea or an intercooler as i did with new plumbing

If I had all the turbos in your arsenal I'd probably swap more frequently too!

We'llp, got'er welded up today.

I'll try to get a shot of it once it's on. Nothing pretty, but it'll work.

Like I said, not pretty. An aluminum spool attatchment on a mig welder doesn't quite put down beads like a TIG, but it works.

It sure is nice to be back at 40+psi!
