Default 1.8 Turbo head replacement

Does anyone know if instructions for cylinder head removal is available on the web. I have an '02 with 1.8 turbo with slipped timing belt. I think some valves are bent. I bought the car this way recently. I think I have all the tools. I have done several on 5 cyl Audi's but this is something else with the sideways motor.

Yeah I'd be interested in hearing any tips as well.... i'm with you on the Audi 5-bangers. Played with those and 1.8L 8-valve Vdub motors for many years with head removals, timing belts, etc. Still haven't gone into the top end of the 1.8T.
You may find a wealth of info on vwvortex.com that may help.
