Tips for charge pipe install? 35D

Do I need to disconnect radiator hoses to get my hot side charge pipe installed or are there some tips to squeezing it in there?


Thanx

If similar to 35i, just need some luck on your side. I didn't get mine all the way on and boost popped it off right into a serpentine belt pulley and it cut a hole so JB weld to the rescue !

Open the coolant reservoir so no pressure or vaccum so the hoses can compress and search YouTube for a video showing the process.
