taking turbo apart

I just took the turbo out to port the wastegate, but im having problems seperating the the turbine housing from the bearing housing. It seems to have a little corrosion. Anybody had this problem before or know how to seperate the two? also, how do you move the wastegate door out of the way so you can port the holes?

If you took the six 13mm or 12mm bolts, it should've came off, cause two out of the six bolts sit under the flanges for the oil. To remove them, the two bolts back out into the flange and gently pry the turbine housing out of the center housing. Remove them alternately, so it seperates evently from both sides.

Sometimes you might need to tap it with a hammer to seperate them if the rust is bad enough.
