Twin Turbo removal - pictures

[nikp]

Presumably these are studs that go into the block, rather than studs in the twin turbo pack? Picks may indeed help.

What were the initial symptoms of the turbo seals failing?

doing this at the moment for the very reason that my secondary has blown it\'s oil seal (working outside in the snow ftw!)
 
lots of oil in the intake pipes, oil is actually pooling in the secondary inlet pipe. my secondary compressor housing is also soaked in oil. the BOV is also puking out dirty oil, so much so that i\'ve had to put a filter on it to stop it from squirting all over the engine bay.

hey im half way through this crappy job!! can anyone give any advice on how to remove sheared studs from the turbo pack?(can post a pic if need be!) and where to buy new studs from? thanks in advance

Drill the little sod out!
 
New studs from a Mazda dealer or any of the tuners can probably order them.  Think they\'re about £5 each.

How the hell do you remove the manifold from the block

The bottom left as you look at it, I cant get a socket, spanner on it due to there being no clearance from the manifold itself.

in the earlier pictures at the start or this thread, the vacuum hoses that go inbetween actuators (the ones with the rectricor pills in them) are missing??
instead, there are pipes going up to the inner wing going on to a black box?? what is it please? james
