Decided to do my own service this year seeing as i just retired. When i removed shield over exhaust to my surprise a broken exhaust bolt. I'm comfortable drilling and tapping out the remaining bolt but would like to do it with turbo removed. Do i have to remove the whole turbo or can i loosen clamp and slide the exhaust side off? Will there be any issues reinstalling the exhaust side of the turbo?
Thanks

I just did one of these last week. The owner broke the bolt, dilled a hole in it , then broke and easy out in the hole.
I HATE easy outs, I never use them.
I would leave the turbo on the sled. Tape up the outlet to keep debris out. Bolt on the muffler and use the open bolt hole as a guide to drill out the broken bolt.
