Swapping Turbo

[Shemnon]

My turbo gave up its oil seal and I will be buying a new one from Turbos Unleashed once i have the money. Question is other than obviosly needing the turbo are there other parts, gaskets, bolts ect that will likely need replacement as well other than the turbo itself?

Car will still run fine (if smoking out oil can be considered fine. )

thanks
Kevin.

Depends what else you are pulling to remove the turbo. If you are able to only pull the turbo, you will not need to change any gaskets except the one on the oil return flange on the turbo(TU will supply one with the turbo). However if you are going to pull the head to swap the turbo you will need all the gaskets associated with that.
