You want the left side turbo. Right side is the one by passenger wheel.

which turbo you are replacing will determine how much labor it will take. one takes 2 hrs, the other 6.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

The left side. I can hear the turbo bearings rattling around when i start the car, of course dumping white smoke like crazy as well. Any tips/other parts to buy on the replacement you can think of? I

If you are going to do one. Do both. Its more labor and money but worth it for peace of mind.
