Yes, exactly. You need 2 19mm wrenches to the best of my recollection..

Where did you get your GT2 clutch stuff from?
Did you get the pieces together yourself, or did you buy the kit?

I'm thinking I should do mine pretty soon

Yea I followed Scott's thread about the GT2 Mod DIY. I literally copy and pasted part numbers and ordered them up. You dont really need to extend the pipe, only if you are **** enuf to want to seat it in its exact stock position. The Power Steering pump bit is the most annoying part, change your Aux/serpentine belt while your at it. Its a very messy job, on this part. The rest is easy.

On a separate note.........I GOT THE POWER STEERING RETURN PIPE OFF!! WOOHOOO and I got the end bit that was stuck in the tank out as well!!! THE SEAL IS FINE!!! NEW PIPE TO BE PICKED UP ON TUESDAY!!

The red seal thingy is part of the PS reservoir tank. Like I mentioned before you need a new tank as well.

Unfortunately you need to buy the whole reservoir as Porsche does not sell just the red collar. I was in the same boat as my red collar was cracked. I was lucky as I ended up buying a used reservoir from a member here that had replaced his due to the valve TSB. His old reservoir was defective so I was able to buy it for $20 so that I could get the red collar off of it. If you have the GT2 conversion done already than you just need to buy the GT2 reservoir which is about $100 cheaper than the Turbo one. In the states the GT2 reservoir is about $500.

If your friend has a few you should ask were he's buying them from as I've seen guys have to spent big bucks as they broke there's as there is no option here to but just the rings.
Becareful with the stock gt2 hose as the angle to get it work is really extreme and I've seen them start to leak as you have to bend it really sharply and the trans moving under hard acceleration just increases the forces on the hard bend.
But congrats on getting the hose out!!
