valve cover to turbo line

so im installing an mpx catch can on my car and after removing the fitting from the turbo where the braided line connects i cant for the life of me put it back. its in such a tight spot back there that all i can use is finger strength to pop it back in but thats just impossible.

how on earth have you guys been able to pop it back in there?? ive tried everything humanly possible.

catch can is a waste of time/money on an LNF. it wont do anything.

you can take it off the turbo. you have to really pry and it pops out. If you take it out the VC theres no way to get it back in if i recall correctly. its hard lined to the VC.
