FWIW WRT your dreaded hose install...
Rhino ramps are great for this if you dont already have yours from
walmart.
Make sure hose clamp bolts are oriented in a direction which allows for
the easiest tightening once in place BEFORE installing/shoving the hose
in place.
Turbo to IC is a wee bit tricky IIRC.  You may have to slightly
lubricate a male / female connection (of  course;)  Check that the hose
is properly positioned (twisted)
so that the connection to the BPV is correct.  Theres a wire holder from
the engine that it should sort of fit into.. You'll see what I'm sayin
when you're there.
The IC to IM is a bitch.  I was able to coerce it on using a short
screwdriver without removing the head light, though that may prove
easier.  Again, you'll see what I'm talkin bout Willis:)
I tightened the clamps as much as I could..  I cut/shortened the
michelin man clamp bolts AFTER install via the handy dandy Dremel.
Good luck, have fun!  Invite some friends over for beers and laughs.
