Not ecoboost related but swapped out my first turbo. Brother in laws
2002 Saab 9-5 2.3 linear 167,000k

Not to bad to change, the old one was frozen solid.



And the new one in
2010 red candy metallic non PP 402B
AJPTURBO 2 BAR Tune Stock 14.1@100.3 / Tuned 12.83@107.7
K&N panel, RX OCC, Sp-534 @.30 Tint 50%F-35%R BOV bypass
1997 SHO silver frost (sold)
1990 SHO triple black 5-speed (saved my life)

Turbo lasted a good long while!  How long did this job take?
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

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!

About 5 hours with 2 parts store runs. Lol. Damn studs (7) would not budge. Had to scramble around to a couple different places before they closed to find them.

Pretty good turnaround, esp.  if liquid refreshments were involved :)
