    When I was really young my fairy godmother came and asked me if I wanted a really long memory, or a really long penis. I still can't remember what I said. Nor can I remember what sizes they were (did a turbo swap a month ago). Maybe 17,19? Start through wrench's on there.
    Dang! You got shocks, pegs... Lucky! You ever take it off any sweet jumps?

      The most common wrench sizes for Japanese cars are 8, 10, 12, 14, 17 and 19mm but Garrett turbo is not Japanese and as I recalled uses 13 mm and possibly 15 mm. Now if you have a set of 6 to 22mm wrench/socket set then you should be good.

          If that's the case then there are two possibilities, one, you need a better set of wrenches or, two, the lines are NPT/SAE. If a SAE size wrench works then so be it, if it doesn't work then see #one?

                  The closest SAE wrench for 16mm would be 5/8 inch and for 11.5mm would be 7/16 inch. I guess you don't have any friends who can lent you tools? I know Craptire has a SAE/metric wrench set that has those odd ball Chinese metric wrenches like 9, 16 and 18 mm.

                    Sorry man but I seriously think you should not touch anything on your car. Wrench sizes is 5year old stuff. You are going to get yourself in way over your head.

                      you need 17 and 19 for the banjos on the side of the turbo closest to the fender
                      the coolant hardline i use a 17 mm line wrench
                      and the oil return is a hose with an 8mm or Philips head.
