removal of old pipe pretty straight forward and completed in less than 10 minutes.....T30 torx bolt clamps intake pipe to turbo system and a few miscellaneous bolts and hoses up top.
installation of a pipe, well that's a different story. probably took me about 45 minutes to get new pipe clamped to turbo. i'm sure there is a trick but i didn't have any up my sleeve. in the end i ended up removing the bolt that secures clamp, opening clamp up wide and installing the top portion of the clamp over the top of turbo and intake pipe, holding down with my finger, inserting the bolt and then tightening.....this sucks the bottom of the clamp up into place. kind of hard to explain but if you take a look, you will see.
good luck,
dave
