let me just say first off.. this thing is a bitch to change out while the turbo and manifold is still on the engine, and engine is in the car...

but anyways... I was trying to upgrade to a divorced elbow and I have 2 questions...

1. How the hell do you tighten the nut on this one? Is there a special trick or tool? With whatever wrench or tool I try, the tranny gets in the frekkin way for me to even try anything...

2. Now.. how the hell do you even fit a nut on that stud??? When I put the elbow on... the stud almost even touches the elbow itself... let alone trying to slide a nut on it.
