it's a bitch. a few have done it with silicone hose and re-routing the lines (good luck running original position behind motor).

biggest pain is getting the hose on the wastegate nipple, i've read from other's experience. long pliers wrapped in duct tape were used to not damage the line while trying to force it over the wastegate.

Those hoses are a total pain to get to. Even with the transmission out of my car, I couldn't touch the rear of the block where the stock hoses are routed. A popped stock hose was the likely demise of the first pair of K04s on my car. Unless you want to pull the motor, the easiest way to do it will be to route new 1-piece heat-shielded hoses between the wastegates and the N75, bypassing entirely the stock plumbing (combination of hard lines and hose).
