yes deffinatly harder if the s/c is in the car compared to a engine stand.
i beleive a fwd 4agze (if thats what you have?) from what i have read on the forums is harder to remove the s/c than say a aw11.
in a aw11 i get underneathe and undo the s/c inlet pipe rubber coupling from the TB down pipe (hose clamps), and while i'm under there loosen and remove the main pivot bolt of the s/c (14mm).
from the top i remove the pipe from the AMF to the TB, the outlet pipe from the s/c to intercooler, take the TPS and cold start doobie plugs off the TB, unplug and remove the blue vsv that controls the ABV, remove the ABV (2x 10mm bolts and a hose clamp on s/c outlet pipe), unplug s/c clutch plug.
undo the hose clamps and remove the 2 coolant pipes that run to the idle down doobie, take throttle cable off TB, undo the 4 12mm bolts that hold the TB to the inlet manifold and then the TB should be able to be removed.
i find it easier to then undo the lil 10mm nuts/bolts that hold the cast s/c outlet pipe to the s/c and remove it.
undo the 2 14mm nuts that hold the top of the s/c to the inlet manifold, swivle s/c towards fire wall.
then wiggle the s/c off the bottom mount, turn s/c upwards and wiggle it out.
(it has been a while since i removed a s/c, so i might of forgotten a few bits...)
have fun.
