Lower intake gasket

I am fairly sure my lower intake gasket is trashed, it looks warped and my car had a huge vac leak and when i sprayed ether at the LIM gasket to the block, it bogged it to stall.
So my question is can I take just the LIM off? I already have the turbo off and was starting to take off the LIM and it looks like alot of things i cant get at with out takeing the UIM off Ie injector lines and OMP lines. Any help would be great as I want my car running in a day or so. Thanks again.

You need to pull the UIM off and connecting components to the UIM then pull the LIM.

thanks, no its not stock. I have no emissons and hardly any wireing harness. I thought i had to, oh well it shouldnt be that much more work. Probably make it simpler slideing the entire unit ahead to get the gasket on. Thanks alot guys.
