so I want to take apart this ct-26 I have. ITs fucked but it has some sort of wierd trim I have never ever seen before. I got the exhaust housing off and the wasgate acurator... But how the hell does the compressor housing come off so I can get a look at the wheel???

Isnt there a big internal circlip on the back of the compressor housing?
I think you will need to pull the ends of the circlip together to compress it to release the housing.

I cant really remember as I did this years back.

Cheers,
Roy

You need a large pair of snap ring pliers. Take the snap ring out, lightly tap the housing off, and wala! You have the housing in your hands...

I'm not a post whore, I just like commenting...

but that snap ring is a tough one, but don't worry, it has no where to go so put some muscle into it...
