#3: Re: How to remove 206 gti 138 manifold ASAP Author: hubbard89, Location: hullPosted: Mon Apr 25, 2011 9:12 am ---- How about putting a 4 to 1 though ? Isit possible putting it in without moving the engine ?

13mm nuts
Yeh its hard, but worth it

Its to big to pull down from the engine where the exhaust goes, and withouht removing the top 2 engine mounts and tilting the engine forward you aint pulling it out from the top either
