There is nothing hard about getting all of the nuts off. It will take a couple hours your first time to just get every thing off/out of the way to pull the thing off. But, be forewarned that you will have a hell of a time pulling it off if you leave the stock oil lines on the block and remove them from the turbo.

I would recommend just pulling off the oil lines from the block when you pull the turbo so that you can replace the shitty oil lines with the JBL stainless briaded lines. This will save you hours of sweat, cussing, and throwing things.
