Help with a turbo

[PSINXS]

Any tips on how to seperate the exhaust housing from the center section? i know its supposed to rotate but mine seems rusted on. Any ideas to break it loose? i tried hammer, wd-40, deep creep, and nothings happening. i need my turboz!!! I am changing housing because I have a skyline turbo and the bolt pattern is different on the elbows

[babowc]

maybe dump it in a bath of wd40..
or heat it up with a torch maybe?

never had to take a turbine side off before :/
sorry!

Batdude might have some insight for you... He's blown his turbo quite a few times and had to take it appart :).

I had to heat mine and slowly work it off. Where you able to get the lock ring out?

half of the lock ring is still on because one of the bolts is hitting the oil return. i'll heat it up and see if i can get it to turn then remove the last two bolts.
