Alright, Do you think I'll have to remove anything to access them? Like the dump tube or wastegate?

i'd imagine you'll have to remove some stuff to get to all the bolts

Yea you do.. I'm putting in the locking tabs for the gtx turbo housing bolts that I bought from ptuning and no way to loosen them without pulling it out, it sucks. Also pulling the dp sometimes need a new vband flange mine was seized & bolt snapped taking it off.

Thanks Miguel. Guess I'll go ahead and buy a new vband clamp and locking tabs. Figures right when the weather breaks I've got to pull her apart.

Yes, you should remedy this situation first, but I also suggest that you run an exhaust manifold blanket like I did.

that looks like a good idea. I have a top mount pfab setup and with the turbo blanket i can touch it and not burn my hand after a drive

I think my new charge pipe is too long. About 2.5-3 inches different. Do you all think i can still use it?

You need to compare the length by stacking one pipe over the other so you can see the diff in length but they should be the same so you should be fine.
Pmed you mrc
