1, remove the rubber hose that connects the throttle body to the ic.

2, leave it on the ic

3, leave it on the tb

I changed the intercooler pipe today and the hardest bit was getting this ****** back on

 

leave it on the IC.

 

I leave it on the throttle body. Never had too much problem with it, to be honest; it's just the first thing I do whn replacing the intercooler, before re-attaching the dump valve, turbo hose, bolts etc. Perhaps I have a knack I never realised I had!

 

i must admit although i said leave it on the cooler, its never made any difference to me, done it both ways more than once.

 

Thats twice i have taken it off and thought i would never get it back on
