Neil - its just a fiddly job.
Disconnect battery.
IC off.
Air box off.
Screen washer bottle out of the way.
Disconnect fuel hoses.
Disconnect loom sockets.
Take of green injector protector brackets (REALLY fiddly job).
Disconnect crank,cam water temp, oil pressure, power steering plugs.
Disconnect multi plugs to EGT, wastegate
Undo jub clip off inlet to turbo.
Undo top line to power steering and swing out the way.
Undo coolant tank, tip sideways & empty then swing to one side.
Undo 8 bolts holding inlet down.
The inlet should come away.
Why are you doing it?

To be honest Nick it was mainly as i thought it would make fitting my new injectors a little easier if i could take the whole thing off rather than getting fiddly, but it look slike its a hassle....i ahve a nice STI one you see which would look lovely too

don't think it would make it that much easyier once the green brackets are off the hard bit is done. Just make sure you lub both top and bottom o rings before you push them in
