I usually hold the turbo by the air housing with my left hand and wack the exhaust housing with a soft face hammer with my right hand. This usually works.

i got it! I just used the bolts that were blocked by the center housing as "lifts".just keep unscrewing them and it seperated the housing. this t3 didnt have a compressor housing, so i didnt want to damage the shaft by hammering...thanks though
