If there is a lot of associated complexity/risk, or will put me SOL if there is a problem with the units later down the road, then I won't bother, and will just do my manifolds.

Also...shouldn't the bolts on the turbo housings be set up for safety wire?

Thanks,
Rob
Safety wiring isn't necessary.

Break the 6 bolts loose on the turbine housing. Place the turbos compressor inlet face down on a nice flat bench area. You can do it with the compressor side facing up also. Finish removing all 6 bolts and accompanying 3 mounting plates. Then just lift the turbine housing off being careful not damage the turbine wheel. Reverse steps for puting it back together.
