hey guys! the car has had the gtm kit in it since 2010 and it looks like its time to replace the oil seals in the turbo. i am not sure if 5 years and the oil seal going is a good thing or bad? I was wondering how hard would it be to remove both turbos? thanks for your help guys!

 

The GTM kits leave little wiggle room to get in there and mess around. I was looking at the same thing but to upgrade the GT28s to GT30s or GT35s. Just need to figure out the best approach.

 

I've had to have mine replaced/rebuilt.My mechanic said *** **** ****** translated to it's pretty tight an if you move this /take this off move this bolt an push just a little *** (exaggerated for comic purposes) ..after the first 2-3 times of doing it you'll figure out a few tricks so its "not too bad". Although yes It is Tight...Lemme Tell you Though..Having oil get past those seals will make for one amazingly embarrassing smoke show..

 

Finally someone who shined some light on how to remove it! Thanks a lot for the information! Turns out i got very lucky and just needed an oil catch can had oil coming through the pcv lines.

 

Yup..Me as well i had to Fabricate a dual oil catch can setup..when i left my tuner and he said i needed gatorade bottles hooked up as catch cans,i was like umm wtf? i did not go with the fab your own bottles setup and purchased some..lol

 

if you don't mind me asking did you put two or one and where did you mount yours? i put one moroso can atmospheric and had both line goto it
