Yeah Mark, If you remove the intercooler and it's bracket (4 bolts) it's a lot easier to get to the butterfly.
Remove the 4 m8's on the butterfly housing and then there are two tiny screws holding the butterfly onto the spindle.
Take the screws out and the butterfly will come away.
Take care with the "0" ring.
And yes, it's on the inlet toward the firewall.
Dont forget to unplug the fan!!
Cheers, the ferret.
EDIT, OH YEAH!!! don't kneel or sit on the top radiator tank, as you WILL snap the overflow spiggot!!
