I use a fabric strap wrench from Parts Source, less than $10, works great.

Unless someone torqued the crap out of it, should be able to loosen it by hand.

Inexpensive and works just as the OEM one would. Maxspeed is in Canada so no worries of inflated shipping or duties.

Thanks,
Mark

We do offer the wrench tool for your Turbo and ship to Canada however you certainly may find the Genuine Porsche part in your area as well but thought I'd provide the catalog listing as an option:

FYI, I've been ordering from the US for ages and I have never paid any duties on motorcycle or car parts and accessories.
