Keep Right Except to Pass
You don't need to take the whole intake off, just the ACV. I did anyway.
Wobble-sockets, shorty combination wrenches, whatever it takes. A small-boned and/or tiny-handed friend?
It's a real booger to get to some of those bolts and I've heard since I did mine that it's easier to remove the turbo & mani as one. Makes sense seeing as how tough the turbo to mani nuts were.
Easier said than done, but patience really IS a virtue.

The flapper door is a little valve that actuates the twin scroll system. It becomes a restriction when you start to upgrade. Do a search for "twin scroll" for more information, and see the instructions on ReTED's website.
