Hypertune itb rb26 plenum. Can it be installed with engine in place?

[burn4005]

Hi all,

So I've found myself in the possession of a hypertune itb plenum for my rb26. Now looking at it, the space for the stud nuts to sit is pretty tight during installation and it's pretty large at cylinder 6.

Is this something that can be installed with the engine In the car? It looks like the clutch master and booster probably have to be pulled and possibly the rear cylinder runner studs cut down a bit to be able to slide it on. Otherwise remove cyl 6 runner from the plenum, bolt the runner to head then bolt back to plenum after installed?

I've pulled OEM plenums in car before and it's a prick but doable, but if this new plenum is impossible to install and the motor must be pulled then i wouldn't bother with the effort of removing OEM until the engine was out. Which I'd really like to avoid.
