Was told I shouldn't need to remove turbo to remove inlet manifold, but can't get to 2 manifold torque bolts either side of the turbo. Turbo will be awkward to remove without being able to get under the car so keen to find an alternative.

The difference is really noticeable, if like mine-your car has had an egr on for the past 160k the inlet will be v clogged. I spent ages soaking mine then pressure washing it out till it looked brand new. Car now pulls stronger mid range and seems to pull for longer. No gaskets required just keep your old ones, the rubber one off top of manifold should be ok too.

If I needed the car the next day I would want new gaskets on hand.
If its a budget project you can always see what they come off like.Current-2004 Impreza PPP wagon
