Dude, I'm confused as to what you are asking.

Post a pic of your engine bay or set-up if possible.

If you are having trouble with the feed line just give it a little elbow grease. It's an oil line, so once you break it loose the oil (from within) will seep into the threads. It should come right off after that.

I still don't know what you are asking though.

Basically the position of the hole for the threads to line up, its unreachable. Im prbly gonna have to remove the intake to get a betta angle and postion on it. I was tryin to avoid that but I think its the only way. But question now is, how easy does the intake come off? Is it pretty straight forward or wot? Now goin bac to my first post, I said i already removed the old line that was thea with my old turbo. NOw I gotta screw bac the new one and call it a day. Hope I cleared up any misunderstandings. Let me know... thanxs

Yeah, getting back there sucks. I found the only way to do it (without removing the intake manifold) is to remove one of the brackets that holds the intake manifold up, then doing it from underneath the car. Jack the car up as high as possible to give yourself plenty of room. It's totally doable that way. Oh, and having an extra person around never hurts either.

By the way, since we're on the subject of turbo feed lines, does anyone have any problems with leaks?

I don't remember doing anything up top, just removing the Oil Pressure Sending Unit from underneath
