You do not have to loosen the up pipes to get the HPOP out but there are two heat shield bolts on the back of the HPOP cover that are tight to get to. Make sure you clean around the HPOP before removing it, dirt can get in.
As stated, be very careful with the bolts, use two hands and concentrate on what you are doing while working back here. I removed my EGR cooler so I could access stuff.
You might wasn't to loosen the up pipes to make it easier to reinstall the turbo.

Videos were very helpful, had already viewed them many times...
What no one mentions in the vids is you HAVE to loosen the up pipes at the manifolds in order to get the cover out... I (stupidly) kept trying to make it fit getting myself frustrated...
As soon as I loosened the up pipes and pushed them back toward the firewall, EVERYTHING CAME OUT LIKE IT SHOULD!!!! Amazing huh?
Pump has now been updated with new STC fitting and has been reinstalled, and cover is over it... didn't drop a bolt!!! YAY!
Also, figured out that it's easier with the pipes loosened and the heat shield out to get a wrench on that bolt that is right near the egr clamp, come from the left side rather than try to fit it parallel underneath with the EGR cooler.

All back together! No problems... at first forgot to re tighten up pipe bolts so had small exhaust leak but after re tightening those this things starts and runs like a gem!
Did a cold start this morning, about 35 degrees out, never has it started so smoothly.
Thanks all for your input... was a challenging job, but I'm thankful for this community and for not having to spend $1500 in labor to get this all fixed.
Just took me a week of spare time!

When I work on my own stuff I don't even factor in time. Since it is for my benifit my own labor is worth 0$$$. If I break something well it is my own fault and I deserve any delay so that doesn't factor in either.
