If its really tight you could open up the holes on the turbo? Not the nicest thing to have to do to a new turbo but may only need 0.5mm each hole.

It all looks a bit wrong to me! The oil return on the turbo core is facing up too! I think it all needs rotating |

Double check the angle of the core (the bit in the middle with oil feed and return) to BOTH the turbine section and the compressor.

i thought you were selling your project? I was but no one bought it, I'm not going to leave it just festering so I'll carry on with it, if I end up selling it then it'll be more complete and more sellable. |

The two I took a apart recently had both locktabs and lockwire, however, the new studs I bought aren't drilled for the lockwire so I'll just use the locktabs.
