Default need advice on tf upper bolts

firstly, the bolts underneath the intake are impossible to torque down since the intake gets in the way, what tools should i go buy to get this done, i believe its a 12 sided 9 mm

and what tool do i need for the two top bolts, i dont recognize them as any socket i own

Default RE: need advice on tf upper bolts

um for the black nuts i used a 3/8 12 point wrench, and for the long bolts in the center i used a 12 point 5/16 socket. I agree it is pretty much impossible to get a socket and effectively torque the black nuts on the driver side. I just got them as tight as i could.
