Going to remove my turbo off my fc as think seals have gone.
Do i need to drain the oil out first prior to removing the turbo?

Anyone name some places to rebuild turbos?
or had experience with any of these:

No you don\'t.. You may get some from the oil feed and water lines but not much..

I\'ve used turbo dynamic and they were good and fast turnaround
