Sounds like a plan, make sure you get new bolts for the turbo up-pipe from Ford before you go tearing into it. When you get frustrated, kick back and relax, when your blood pressure returns to normal, continue working. It really is no big deal, but it can frustrate ones self the first time.
In your tool kit make sure to have beer.

Comes with new bolts and some gaskets that
