Cool Took apart intake

I'm bored so here it goes. Monday we started to take our 13b's intake off, we got it. the next day (tuesday) we tried to clean and still take apart the intake, got some things clean. Wednesday we cleaned yet again and then for pretty much the whole day while i was wet sanding a rim my brother and a friend were taking forever to get off the (original) gaskets from the engine and i think the manafold. The same day we finally got our tires. Yokohama ES100 205/60/14, the smallest sidewall they made for that rim. Today, Thursday we cleaned yet again and did finishining touches (made it look like chrome, yo, DAwg) and my bro is obsessed with clear cote so you can imagine. So we put on the first intake part on the engine (i'm dumb) that has the actuators and we made our own metal plate (whatever) for one actuator. And tomorrow we'll put everything back on and replace the fuel filter and hope it idles and take it to get the tires changed. And then Saturday were goin to Knoxville to visit family. It's first out of town trip *sniff* i'm so happy *sniff*. so hopefully it won't vibrate as much and we'll be able to go over 70. While maybe it will idle.
