Surely the clip sizes will be just slightly bigger then the TIP OD?
Can't help with fitting though, got mine done for me

You can fit it from the top, you just have to connect it to the turbo by feel as the TIP and your arm get in the way of a decent view. Not a problem, though.

Thanks, thats monday sorted!!!

Have you got one of those flexi hose drivers Pete? About £7 from Halfords. Well worth it.

Think I'm gonna need double jointed elbows aswell!! Thanks phil!!

It's easier than you think. Even I managed it...

Only difficult part I found was getting the old one off as some plank had put the original jubilee on the turbo end on facing the engine, so had to use a very small stubby screwdriver to undo it. It was pretty loose though so came off easy ( which was slightly worrying )

Thats what i felt over weekend, so thought you might have to go in from under? Hey pete gonna put photo up but for now I just finished my homage to your instal in Becky's car, very similar but oversize 12" sub!!

I just remembered mine was facing the bulkhead - very easy for whoever fitted it as the engine was probably out of the car.

The Intercooler ones were the same on mine - I had to rush out and buy a full set of spanners so I could get a 7mm (?) one to fit, loosen the hose clamps just enough to turn them and then use the hose driver.

Anyway, stpete's probably already had all his off to polish them

 

[stpete]

[stpete]

All done! thanks for your help guys! took a while polishing them clips phil!!!
