That is the first line you should be putting on when installing the turbo. Really the only way to do it is by removing the dump pipe and reaching in from behind. Also if you want some more room, take off all the intake tubing (yes....all of it - except right at the intercooler) and you can get your left arm in from the front and your right arm in from the back. You will have to throw your shoulder right down close to the firewall as you have to curl your right arm up from underneath. It is very difficult to get at but with some patience you will get it. If not, undo the 4 17mm turbo mounting nuts and pull back the turbo as well. Then you can get at it from the top, it's all down hill fom there. Make sure the fitting is still at the correct angle and position. To check this.....remove the banjo nut and copper washers and push the line into its position. If it sits flush with the connection point and does so with minimal effort, then it should be ok. If not, bend it gently to achieve the correct angle. If you can't bend it, use a 14 or 15mm spanner to bend it as if you were turning a nut. Do not get frustrated with it....your best work will be done with a clear head. You will get hand cramps but they will go away. If I was down there I would do it for you but sorry I can't help any more than that.
