How in f*** do I get the rear turbo intake pipe out? got the nuts off OK from under the car, but it doesn\'t fit out either by pulling from above, or from below the car!

Is there a magic trick to this?

Thanks,

Had this problem last week, easier with the downpipe and y pipe removed and it should drop down, the fun really begins when it goes back on.

like said you have to remove the y pipe and 1 off the nuts on that is a pain to do as well

Lol, the reason I\'m trying to get the rear pipe off is so I can get the Y-pipe off :Hammer

lol I know what your saying but the y pipe does come out with the rear pipe in place (unbolted) I had to use a 1/4 drive rachet with a flexi adaptor though

To change the Y pipe, you dont need to take the rear pipe off, the best way to change the Y pipe is to take the nuts and studs out of the front Turbo pipe, and lift the Y pipe up and forward out of it\'s O ring, you dont have to get underneath the car, hour and a half at most, good luck Bob
