It's a 97 TL 2.5 and Joseph nailed it. The hub has to be pressed out to remove the rotor, which is why I now own a nice new 12 ton press that doubles nicely as a firewood splitter.

4 1/2 inch angle grinder

Re: tools that you need to have
 

you don't need a press its the same brakes that come on the accords, you need a set of balls and a slide hammer

Re: tools that you need to have
 

well im mostly looking into maybe a sawzall,dremel,grinder and impact driver are those good enough to have when dealing with custom turbo set-ups i guess since its my first time boosting i want to make sure im not going to have headaches because i dont have the right tools

Re: tools that you need to have
 

swivel sockets, stubby/long handled wrenches, metric line wrenches, good quality 3/8 ratchet (with low º rotation per click, makes tight spaces 10x faster to work in) um.. brass/rubber mallet, gasket material

Re: tools that you need to have
 

Sledge

Re: tools that you need to have
 

get a nice torque wrench, angle grinders rule, even a dremel, you cant go wrong with a dremel.

Re: tools that you need to have
 

a drill, bfh( big f'n hammer), long handled ratchet wrench, breaker bars, and the sawzall is gods gift to man

Eh, Sorry to break it to you son. I went at it with a 16 lb slide hammer for about 3 hours. Then my neighbor and I went at it for another hour using the slide hammer and a 16 lb sledge. Nobody was getting this thing out with a slide hammer. I wore a pair of welding gloves and I had bruises all over my hands when I finally stopped. I also tried using 4 longer bolts and an air hammer as the Wagner technical bulllitin shows, that didn't budge anything. When I did finally get it to break with the 12 lb press, I broke the rotor in half. Then the hub snapped so loud, I thought I broke the press. I had to take a wire wheel to it and grease it with white lithium to get it back in using the press.
