How to remove a duramax turbo(or install) 

**Warning: This job is not for beginners. The turbo gets very hot and causes corrosion to happen early even in arid climates. The fasteners and bolts on the turbo and the manifolds can be extremely difficult to remove. Use a torch to heat up and ice cool down fasteners that won't budge. Get a feel for the system and components that will need to be removed before starting the job**
My truck has a 6 inch lift which gave me very nice access under the front wheel wells. You may not have the same access.
Pulled my turbo because I was getting a stuck turbo engine light p003a. Took it apart and cleaned it properly after half attempting to clean it with grill cleaner. I made a video on how to clean it but i filmed it up and down but if enough people want me to upload it I will. This truck is a 2006 LBZ.
I would not recommend following any video on cleaning the turbo where you smash the actuator with a hammer. My turbo was completely filthy with soot and rust (truck from Oklahoma), it is not something a hammer will fix. Just take the time and do it right.
I dont include some of the most basic tasks that need to be done to complete this job like removing the down pipe and some other things, however, those are very obvious in my opinion and if you cant figure out how to do the basics here without my help you should not attempt this job yourself. This video is in the reverse order because there were no decent videos on how to do this when I made it, it was a trial and error process and I learned along the way.
Thank you for watching!
