Help manifold removal and more..

I'm going to remove the inlet manifold in order to replace the turbo inlet pipe and at the same time I'm going to do the parallel fuel rail and inlet spacer mods.

I have a few questions that I can't answer through search..
1. Do I need to drain the coolant prior to removal ?
2. Power steering pump removal ?
3. Anyone have a step by step guide or know the hurdles involved ?

Fuel lines,
1. What diameter injection hose is needed ?
2. Is 100psi hose adequate ?
3. Anyone know the exact part No.s to order ?

I'm feeling a bit out of my depth but I think it will be fine...

Model and year?

See http://206.13.93.15/STi_Stuff/STi_Manual/ which is the USDM STI service manual and has instructions on how to remove the intake manifold. It will be slightly different for UK Spec or JDM Spec cars but similar...
