Pheeew, looks like you got some work ahead of you. Don't be afraid to use sandwich bags and old sticky labels with a sharpie for the small stuff. Ask me how I almost went insane when I lost my thrust washer...

do you know if i can pull the manifold with turbo on it?

Im sure you "could".

The turbos really fairly easy to get off, I got it off with just a 14 mm wrench IIRC (off the manifold) in like an hour.

BEST thing to do it soak the bolts in penetrating oil and let the sit over night.

As for remebering vacume lines and such. I would go out and buy 6-8 feet of all the standard vacume line sze at the auto parts store for like 40 bucks and re do all of them. That what i jsut recently did and it came out fantastic and my supra idles much better.

Definatly, definatly take lots of pictures of the motor and englarge them 11x17. It helps with re-assembly. Bag EVERYTHING, and most of all, take your time and ask many many questions.
