Taking off Stock intake manifold

95blueGT · June 11th, 2007, 04:52 PM

i've taken out every bolt i can find. i still can't get the upper plenum off. any suggestions or is there any bolts that i may be missing?? Also I am thinking about getting a supercharger that will replace the upper plenum. which lower plenum do you think i should get?

yea thats what i thought. I've had it off before about two years ago. I went to take off the plaque this time and the screws stripped. I'm waiting to get to the store and purchase some steel drill bits to get the heads of the screws off. Any ideas as to what i should work on after i get the manifold off???????

It is typically harder to do anything that you dont really know how to do.
