intake manifold question

P.O.E.T.

Member
is there a how to: remove the intake manifold for the p5?
or can someone help me out and tell me where are the bolts that holding the intake manifold........ any pointers on how to takeoff the intake manifold?
 
Follow the path to remove bottom half first and then the top half (so you can access the bolts on the Head).

Be careful to not lose the injector seals or the black rail spacers...
 
tanks for the info...


is it me or what?? i just did a visual inspection before i start taking off the manifold this weekend ...... but i cant see 2 bolts, the bottom left and bottom right!! i hope is not a pita taking off this 2 bolts when i start this weekend
 
get a nice set of 1/4 sockets with a 6" extender....it's easy to get those 3 bottom bolts out...the 2 side bolts from the sides...just hit it with the extension from inbetween the runners
 
since i just got mine ported, is it possible just to swap upper halves of mani without having to remove bottom?
 
Doesn't matter (porting). I have done it both ways - remove as one assy and do it it in two halves. Two halves made it MUCH easier/quicker overall - because access the bottom head bolts are such a PITA!
 
do you still need a butterfly for vics? i think a few extra came in my box when i got the spare, i can't recall. i will let you know after i get home this weekend from school. i should be at my parents on friday and i can look in my box then.
