Default T34 Turbo removal

Whats the best way to take the turbo off a BT Escos? The 2 bolts on the inside look nigh on impossible to get at. Is it best to take the exhaust manifold off and then remove the turbo on the bench?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

its akward no matter what way you do it
the bolts from turbo to manifold are very tight to get into
but the bolts holding on the manifold are nearly as tight in places
best bet is remove manifold and replace with 2wd manifold while its off
as it flows better and makes changing the turbo in future very simple

Will the t34 bolt straight on to a 2wd manifold? my mate has a 2wd saff and it looks a completely different setup.
