Some are, some arent.

I'd be more familiar with Subarus, and for the most part they are a doddle to work at.

Cossies...some stuff is easy, some not so easy.

From the horrific standpoint....it's just the GT4/MR2 turbo just excel themselves !!

I assume the shaft has broken then ?

Whilst the turbine wheels are fragile in them, that is pretty bad.

Make sure and do a compression test on the engine to make sure nothing went through the engine that caused the failure.
But the standard turbos really dont take much boost at all
