Man... I have never even attempted a turbo replacement or even removal on a stock manifold with the engine in the car. Kudos to you.

I think that removing the manifold from the engine (which is what I think you did) is the least impossible solution.

Seriously, unless you still have the entire rats nest and emissions system on your car, pulling the engine should be a 1.5 hour project tops. (Of course you said it was 105 degrees out which would make anything seem difficult).
