It will have to come out threw the bottom. On the drivers side you wil have to unbolt the steering knuckle.

Yeah, it's one bolt then you can slide the steering shaft up towards the firewall, it'll collapse in on itself and stay out of the way until you're ready to re-attach it.

Oh, and be sure not to turn your steering wheel while it is detached. You'll mess up your steering position sensor's reference range and have to detach the shaft again and re-set it to centered.

(Gutted folks like Spohn and I don't need to worry about this as we've already ditched that sensor)

No idea if this is what Sam referred too but in his pre-release thread, he mentioned that the steering coupler is untouched. Not sure if he means the same thing as the steering knuckle.

I'm not positive but what I think he may be applying is that it will not be modified or changed any form or fashion like his other kits And not the removal of the stock manifold in which it is in the way. It's just a lot easier when removed.
