PSA for those doing their own turbo / fpr install
Me and a friend of mine both are doing the epl k16/16g kit at the same time.
I was putting in new plugs and changing to the 5 bar fpr on both cars while everything was apart, but was dreading taking apart everything up top and beating up my hands for the 5 bar.
If you remove the coil pack closest to the front of the car on the passenger side the fpr is pretty easily accessible from the bottom. I was able to use long needle nose pliers to pull the clip out and could get my hand in there to wiggle it out. went back in pretty easily the same way. Took 5 minutes.

If you remove the front most coil pack on the driver side the fpr is pretty easily accessible from the bottom. I was able to use long needle nose pliers to pull the clip out and could get my hand in there to wiggle it out. went back in pretty easily the same way. Took 5 minutes.
