Yeah, have small hands. A short 14mm wrench helps too.

I think I would have pulled the motor instead. I agree if you have small hands, it can be done! I am subscribed.

+1. I would also check the motor mount if you haven't replaced it.

I would agree on the motor mount. Now is the time to do, I think they're ablut $90 from RockAuto. They may look OK, but the rubber breakes down over time and just can't handle the boost.

U guys r talking about the motor mount on the passenger side that's exposed after the stock twins r off right? Is it just a stock Sc300 motor mount or a 1jz? I don't remember

Pulling the motor is a lot more work then trying to take off the 3 or 4 bolts that r hard to reach, we worked on it for a total of like 5 hours to remove the stock twins

Good gosh at the size of the turbo, will the 1JZ be able to spool it quick enough? Is it a T4 turbo along with the manifold? I bought the BW S366 and its big, but the T4 manifold and turbo should help out. Ready to hear it installed.. I was only kidding about pulling the motor out to replace the turbos. lol Its not too bad to do, but easier while motor is out.. GL
