Lagos' ct20b install Options

[lagos]

Here are the pics from the install...

I decided to remove just the turbo and not the entire exhaust manifold, to help avoid any issues with stripped exhaust studs.
I also had a brand new Hose from Hell that has been sitting in my house for months waiting for this day.... and wouldn't you know it, I didn't think of bringing it with me to my friends house where the installation took place. oh well.

Removing the ct26...















Here is an interesting picture of the effects of washer fluid injection over a period of time. the turbo on the left is the new ct20b and the turbo on the right is my ct26. You can clearly see a white precipitate that has formed as a by product of mixing washer fluid into the combustion chamber.
It also looks like there is a bit of an uneven distribution of the washer fluid as cylinders 1 and 2 have a lot more of the white percipitate than cyl 3 and 4.

Seems I have a pretty bad exhaust leak. Luckily it seems to be coming from one of the front turbo nuts not being on tight enough. Ordered new nuts as the old ones are starting to strip and going to buy a proper 6point wrench to try to fix it up. I just hope I dont need a new turbo gasket as they go for about 80bucks (total ripoff).
