As title need help on removing the rear air turbo intake pipe from within the car

There are two bolts that hold it on to the inlet of the rear turbo. They are 10mm bolts. You can use a swivel and get them or use a 10mm wrench, preferably on with a ratchet. You will have "wiggle" it out but it can be done.

Hmm, there was no danger mine was coming out when the engine was in place, I did manage to get it out with the engine tilted forward when taking the engine out.

I\'ve tried that but it is in there tight I give it another go but is there any thing I can remove or loosen to make it Easter

as what philiwily stated, you can tilt the engine forward a bit and this might help getting it out, but it can be done without this, and tilting might be more effective if there is no transmission. When I did mine, I remember having to go under the car and using a swivel and extension to reach one of the nuts. Its very tight but can be done
