    Does taking the intercooler off make that big of a difference when changing the dp? Or is it more work than worth it?

    removal may speed up the process if still has factory cooling tin in place.

    unless you have a really long extension and a swivel socket you won't be able to reach a couple of the bolts and even then it'd have to be from the bottom. Don't be lazy, take it off. its only a couple of clamps, Try and get the clamp to the BPV off rather than unbolting it and risk ruining the gasket or stripping the 2 bolts hold it in.

    Is there an easy way to get the bolts with the spring back on? Seems like they wont go back like the spring is streached to far.
