Default Tightening fast 102 intake bolts

What tool do you guys use to tighten the fast 102 intake bolts since there is essentially zero clearance in there especially with the fuel rails being where they are?

Are you asking about the bolts that bolt the intake to the heads, if iircc the stock bolts and FAST 102 bolts are interchangeable?

The intake manifold bolts?

In the thread he linked you to he discussed that he needed to loosen the k member bolts in order to fit his wrench under the cowl to tighten the intake bolts

What i meant was not the same type of bolt. The fast bolts take a 5mm hex bit. I managed to get just the right length with my quarter inch ratchet to slip in under the cowl and over the fuel rails so I got it taken care of.
