Changed my first turbo today

[glock-coma]

Not ecoboost related but swapped out my first turbo. Brother in laws
2002 Saab 9-5 2.3 linear 167,000k

Not to bad to change, the old one was frozen solid.

And the new one in

Turbo lasted a good long while!  How long did this job take?

About 5 hours with 2 parts store runs. Lol. Damn studs (7) would not budge. Had to scramble around to a couple different places before they closed to find them.

Pretty good turnaround, esp.  if liquid refreshments were involved
