And besides cleaning the rust, if you've replaced the turbo then it's not a bad idea to loosen the y-pipe at the exhaust manifolds and EGR cooler if it's there and tighten the inlet to the turbo first. I have to do mine this way every time I remove my turbo or I'll get a leak. The exhaust manifolds are, for whatever reason, a little more forgiving on sealing off.

guess i should of asked if you had a leak at the inlet of the turbo or the outlet of the turbo.like stated above its kind of a pain to get the y pipe to line up with the inlet odf the turbo.i was just assuming you ment the inlet of the down tube on the exhaust.
