Did some more work this weekend-

Oil pan's off-

Determined that I was shipped the correct replacement pan but the incorrect gasket. Will order a gasket soon so that will be good to get finished. I have the turbo drain pipe out and will be replacing all three rubber bits with OEM.

Turbo guts removed!

Both wheels appear to be in excellent shape with no pitting or chipping. There is zero shaft play from what I can tell. Everything exhaust forward had a predictable thin layer of oil sprayed all over.

Peeking into the intake manifold you can see it's pretty oily, but it's not absurdly bad. Anything easy I can do about this while I'm here?

I need to do some research on the disassembly of the turbo and start that, figure out what needs replacing. Hoping just a basic kit will do me, depending on the wear I find inside. Cheers.
