I can't get a wrench on this ****** with it in the car...do I have to pull the manifold out to get to 1 nut?

It is a hellamotherfuckingbitchcuntwhoreassrapepainfest.
I ended up taking a combo wrench, cutting it into a shorty using the box end, and by trial and error removing bits of material from the wrench handle (and the box head), with a grinder until it barely worked. It is a lot easier with the manifold out or the engine on a stand. That is why I want to go to socket head cap screws and safety wire.

After what I've gone though today with more **** breaking and dealing with this crap, I think I've realized that I must go above and beyond what works for normal people and go with v-bands. Hopefully BEGi can do this in a timely fashion.
Am i really asking to much to have a turbo car that I don't have to disassemble everytime I track it? I don't mind little **** here and there, but taking the car appart incessantly, living in hotels doesn't make sense after already droping $4k on a turbo kit.
What are the chances that someone would want my manifold and dp for $600?
