Then I pried the punch away from the housing with a large flat head. After breaking free each end of the ring I was able to easily remove the snap ring with snap ring pliers. It's the rust/gunk that makes them so hard. For me, removing the turbine housing was the hardest part. Formerly: ZEVAN (Ca), Evan3zx(ca) Xbox live GT: kidding Me
