how easy to remove pd150 turbo

swapped turbo diesel engines in a mk2 mondeo removing both engines. Ive stripped and removed engines from a saxo vts, 1.1 citroen ax forte's twice, pug 106 xsi and an Ax Gti.
Ive removed manifolds from a 2.0 low torque vectra dti to swap turbos over and give the inlet manifold a clean.
I hope i can run the leon until april time next year and replace it with either a 2.8td shogun or a 325tds bmw e36 as a daily for my partner to use, on veg oil naturally lol, so i can save the money to get a bigger turbo fitted and then get it off to tsr for a decat pipe and remap.
I had a look when i removed the ASV and was well put off because i couldnt see a direct way to do it. I know time is the key to doing it. If i could do it in a weekend then for the short term i'd buy a working turbo and chuck it on for now and then save for the TD £1100 hybrid job for the leon and fit myself.
looking at having tsr run the innotec stuff and then fit my miltek decat after aswell.
Even if its a short term fix then it will do. Will start execising the turbo more often as the car barely goes above 70mpg on my partners commute to work.
If anyone thrashes it then its me generally.

As fester has put - its mostly done from undernieth, a damn site easier with the o/s driveshaft off. Not a bad job to do really but the oil feed pipe on the top tends to sieze solid.
I've seen one changed in well under 2 hours and that included some faffing about - it's all about access and having the right tools.
I put turbo back exhaust on the other week and was reasonably easy to undo from turbo but I have narrow hands and wrists so could access from underneath quite easily.
