Come to a bit of a sticking point. I can't seem to work out how to fit the exhaust manifold and turbo housing. It just seems like I need 4 pairs of hands! Can anyone advise on the best way to fit these parts please.

Fit the three pipes into the housing using tiny bits of Blutak.
Wiggle the pipes into place on the engine and glue them in, keeping the turbo in position.

When fully dry take the turbo unit off and remove the Blutak and then glue it back on.

I have the same problems all the time when building big F1 cars.
