AARRGGHHHH"""!!! how do ypu remove last up pipe bolt! ?
on the up pipe can get all the nets off except the one right uynder the turbo.
how do you do it?>!
]
have so far snapped 3 1/4 inch tools trying to do it and runnig out of tools!
am very annoyed to say the least
can you take the turbo off? or is there an easier way to get to it?
would unmdoing all the actual manifold ones them selves allow me to wiggle it on just this one bolt, which might loosen it?
been going for 3 hours now and its driving me nuts"!
how do most people do this one??

i got mine off with wobbley knuckle and extension bar wasnt to diffcult for me.
the only other way i can think is spilt the up pipe from the manifold at the bottom but i found its a bit arkward getting the upipe up with the turbo on i tried to put min back this way.
hope this helps

never had a problem getting access to them with 3/8th tools to be honest 1/4 is bound to break. once the down pipe etc is off there all prety easy to get at I use 3/8 and a small breaker bar

1/2" drive 14mm impact socket, long extension bar, a power bar, bit of WD40 and a good yank.
I split my headers off the up pipe first.
I assume you have the down pipe off?

got it off! with a 1/2 inch entension bar and a small 6 sided 14mm i found in a old box.
took down pipe off aswell for now just ro make things easier.just undoing the manifold, but it started to get dark.
i can see the drivers side manifold will be easy to remove as you can access the nuts easily with an extension bart, but passenger side do you just remove the heatshield?
and whatever sensor is on the driverside manifold, is real rusted in there. im using a adjustable spanner and extensdion bar - any good?> it hasnt shifted yet but i only spent a couple of minutes on it
