undo the jubalee clips on both the turbo pipe black on yours red on sti then middle intercooler pipe then do the right hand bracket 3 bolts think 12mm then the left hand 1 above turbo and simply push back and pull away from turbo then simply reverse to put back in but maybe a little lube on red turbo pipe to ease it on then make sure all is nice and tight

What personally or the car lol.

No there's no oil bits to worry about, just make sure the turbo pipe seal is good and listen out for any new whistles indicating you may have a boost leak after you fit it.

You might want to fit the STi splitter which directs air from the scoop too tho ?
