Step 4 –
From underneath the car carefully un-plug and then remove the two oxygen sensors from
the factory Catalytic Converter/intermediate section (
Fig 7
). Spray both sensors with WD-40 to
assist with removal, as they can be difficult to remove. Take care not to damage the sensor body or
mounting threads during removal. Un-bolt and remove stock Catalytic Converter/Centre sectional
and discard.

Step 5 –
The air-conditioner receiver drier needs to be relocated to provide enough room for the
turbocharger assembly. Carefully push the receiver drier towards the engine bay firewall
approximately by one inch as shown in (
Fig 7
). Remove the high-pressure A/C line chassis rail-
mounting clip and carefully bend the A/C pressure line in towards the Right Hand Suspension strut
tower. Refer to (
Fig 8
)
Caution! Be extremely careful when bending air conditioner hoses. Only bend hoses enough to
provide adequate clearance. Air conditioner systems contain gas at very high pressure. Over-
stressing air conditioner lines can result in a discharge of high-pressure gas. Exposure to this can
result in serious injury.
