 Quite a few on here had that done, I did it a few years ago, B  tch of a job!
From memory - turbo around £800 (shop about) Indi about £1500 LR dealer £3K.
The body doesn't have to come off but its very awkward from below 
Whats the problem? Is it defo the turbo or poss just a sticking actuator giving the ESF on dash?
OUCH just realised is yours a 3L twin turbo? different fish in that case!

Yes 3ltr twin turbo the car is running fine but when I accelerate hard it drops a puff of white smoke then clears a few people I've spoke to say it's turbos but I don't really know much about things like that

It doesn't need new turbos, it needs the oil drain modification.  There is a 'how to' complete with parts list Here

Team valley quoted me £242 but got the parts from Stratstone and did myself.
I think the pipe was about £70 and a few other bits and bobs took parts to about £90.
If you have access to ramp it's not too bad a job.
