Help Removing Hoses From Turbo

[Cameron02]

Hi good people,

My car (BA) is booked in for a tune on Monday morning. I am busy fitting Venom Cat Pipe and I also need to remove my turbo, manifold and dump pipe. I have a port/flapper turbine which has been ceramic coated as have the dump and manifold. Will also be fitting 12psi actuator once the turbo is off. I read mrmackie's post on removing the turbo which has been a big help.

However, I have hit a hurdle. I am having great difficulty removing the lower compressor pipe and the compressor vac line. I managed to move the clip on the pipe (bastard) but the pipe just wont come off. I have tried grabbing hold of it from under the car and using my body weight but it wont budge. I have tried getting a screwdriver into the pipe from the top but not having any luck. Having a similar problem with the vac line. just wont budge.

Any body have any tips or ideas? They are the original (standard) pipes.
