Default Turbo 5th Gen Accords, did you have to cut the power steering line??

I was reading on http://home.insightbb.com/~niedejb/ website and he had to cut his line and make it shorter, for the charge pipe that goes down to the intercooler to fit. Did the rest of you have to do that also? or could you just bend the brackets back?

Thanks

I just rerouted the power steering cooler. It is no big deal to cut the lines to the cooler, the system bleeds itself out after you refill it.

Okay, so it sounds like I will be having to cut the lines.

Do you know how many bottles it took to fill up the whole entire line again?

Rerouted here also, but I have no a/c either which makes ALOT of room. It is going back later but I need to do some modification first...
