Removing stock turbo
Does anyone have a how to on how to remove the stock turbo in the 2010 SS. I found a link on how to remove it but it doesnt include pics and we all know how to's are pretty much useless without pics. So does anyone have a link with pictures on how to remove the stock turbo

ive done a turbo swap on an ss/tc about 10 times now. if you need any help pm me anytime and i can walk u thru it. After about the 3rd time i have it down to a science lol. just a little tip, ive found that it is a lot easier if you take the rear transmission mount off. also use power tools, hand tools takes forever trust me.

Easy...remove intake and hot side pipe.remove heatshields.disconnect all sensors. Remove downpipe and o2 housing. If you remove the fuse box it makes the o2 housing easier to remove. Disconnect coolant and oil lines. You can leave the drain attached,
At that point all you should have left is to unbolt the turbo. 4 bolts it's off. That's just a quick undetailed way since I'm on the phone

Get one at your local auto parts place. I think its the 3/8 one. In the multicolor pack it is usually blue.
