Forgot to mention that removing the plastic shroud takes some finesse, as opposed to brutal force. It takes a certain twist and turn to get it out. Do some thinking and visualization.
I approached it the wrong way (brutal force), had a tough time getting it off. When the clutch is done, I knew that I could never get the shroud back on using brutal force. So I studied it and tried clock-wise and counter-clock-wise turns at various stages of the installation process. Miraculously, it went on without the slightest use of force! I might have written it down on this BB. Do a search.
BTW, turbo is tougher simply because of all the extra plumbing to be removed and re-installed. But that is purely peripheral; insignificant, one might add. The main work is the same.
Good luck!
