I've gotten far enough in my install where I have the stock manifold off and the turbo is hanging loose but I can't get it out. The oil return line keeps getting snagged on things so Im having trouble pulling it through. I can't get to the bolt to remove the line so I cant get it off. Did anyone else run into problems like this?

You also have to unbolt the coolant return line and the small support bracket that holds the K03 up.

lower it & put it close to the front of the car. then turn it counter clockwise. pull out

Yes, I did all of that, I'm just having trouble with the getting the oil return line to clear everything on the way up. It keeps snagging on everything imaginable.

Disconnect it from the turbo.

I've tried that too but I'm having a really hard time getting to the bolts.

I think it is the coolant return line. Once I get this off I should be able to get the thing out pretty easily.

That is the coolant hose that bolts up to the block and has a bango fitting on the block side of the turbo. If you look up from under the car you will see what I am talking about.

Heh, alright, just a banjo bolt, guess I read your reply to quickly first time, thanks.
