First soak you hands in water for about 5 hours, so they shrink enough to fit them were you need to. But seriously, just start unbolting everything you see above,below and around them.

its not that hard, the turbos come off in one piece just unbolt them from the... wait, i think you ubolt them from the manifold, but maybe you just unbolt the manifold and it all comes off... it has been a while so i kinda forget, i just remember that you don't have to unbolt em from each other... also make sure you use some PB blaster or such, will help out tremendously
