TBatt

Yep, that is what I did last night, removed to TB coolant lines. They had to go as they were in the way of the Y-pipe along with several cables and the windshield washer filler neck. The Y-pipe is finally on but it sure put up a fight. I wound up having to spread the ends further apart in order to get both clamps on. My wood wedge and hammer trick worked out well to spread the ends and did very little springing back.

Getting both of those couplers on at the same time is also a challenge!

Now I need to get the Y-pipe to intercooler coupler on. The 45 degree coupler (short one) is too long and will need to be trimmed. Sliding excess lengths of silicone couplers on to these pipes is not fun. I got the coupler on but it just won't slide any further up the y-pipe so I need to take it back off and trim it a couple of inches. I would have had it done last night but I had to go to a HOA meeting about our 4th of July party.
