Howdy, I know this has been a topic previously I would appreciate some wisdom as to whether there is a way or not to access the exhaust manifold to turbo gasket bolts and also the turbo to exhaust gasket bolts without taking the whole turbo off as I’m not well experienced in doing so, as I can’t seem to reach them when having the car on a hoist or from above, I would prefer to do it myself rather than take it to a mechanic because of the labour cost. The vehicle has a shocking exhaust leak at the moment and it’s coming from one of the turbo gaskets, definitely doesn’t seem to be the exhaust manifold gasket. It’s a loud ticking under load and whistling+ticking under boost, when rev matching it almost sounds like a car without an exhaust manifold lol. Just want it fixed asap. thanks

hey guys , was at turbotrana's earlier today trying to sus out a few things , I came to realise that the noise ive been assuming was an exhaust leak but could never find is definitely the dump pipe gasket. Ive been looking everywhere to find a thread of "how to" replace the gasket the easiest way possible. All I have been able to find that's remotely close is threads on "how to remove turbo for flapper upgrade." If I can avoid pulling off the whole turbo and all the oil return lines and coolant lines I would much prefer that , I dont have a hoist but I do have a quality jack. If anyone can put me in the right directions it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
