Intercooler pipe removal
Hi guys need some advice on how to remove driverside intercooler pipe that goes from the turbo to cooler. I have a rust hole in it that needs to be patched up but I need to get it out first. Looks like I will have to pull fan shroud to fish it out.
Would like to hear ideas as I go on road trip on Friday need to fix before I go
Thanks

He means the long pipe from turbo outlet to cac inlet. Rumour has it this is a PITA to get out. Upgraded hot side pipes as far as I know are a 2 piece design to make installation a lot easier.

Yes it's the long one. I just finished putting it back in and what a job it was to get out. After 2 hours of fighting with it I finally got frustrated and cut the straight part off on the bottom end with my sawzall and tig welded it back together in place after I patched the holes in the pipe. Not fun but saved a lot of extra work. Good luck to anyone else that has to repair or replace this pipe.
