Looks like the up pipes are leaking at the turbo inlet. Make sure if you try to remove them to disconnect them at the manifold first. Those bolts go clear through, no big deal if they break. Heat the housing before you remove the bolts at the collector. Mine would start to turn then stop. Let the housing cool then clean the threads with a tap. I used sbc doughnut gaskets to take up the difference from the up pipes being worn from the stock gaskets.
