Replacing a turbocharger is a significant repair, and it's crucial to ensure proper installation. This includes cleaning the intake and exhaust plumbing thoroughly to remove any debris that could damage the new turbo. It's also recommended to replace the oil feed and drain lines, as well as the coolant lines if applicable, to prevent contamination and ensure proper lubrication and cooling. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for detailed procedures and torque specifications.
