Question How do i remove the head, turbo, dme and nose from 931

Hey yall. I got a 931 tubo that got hit so its going away.

I wanna get the head, turbo, dme and nose off of it. I looked at the garage shop manual but it counldt help me too much, i have a strange model.

1. The nose - it seems liek its tack weleded on and the only way I can get it off would be to cut it off. There are no screws liek there would be on a 951.

2. the head - it may be simple but I'm not sure. i got the valve cover off but thats about it

3. dme, whre is that lil bugger?

4. the turbo - I'm under the car and i see it. i beleive th conrtol arm is in the way. I coudl unbold the exhaust but there it a bot on top of it that i KNOW i will not be able to get to.

Or possibly would it just be easier to take the head off and then get to the turbo?

I'd recommend by far pulling the engine complete - much easier. Getting the turbo out will take longer, not to mention the head.

The nose panel is welded on, correct.

Engine control units are inside; one under the steering column (Lambda control) and the ignition controller on the center tunnel under the HVAC unit.

The nose panel is spot welded on aross the top lip (which is covered by the hood when shut) and along the bottom, i think you will need to remove the bumper and work on your back to drill out the welds along the bottom edge, there are a fair amount of them also, i think i remember about 15+.
