I see there is 6 bolts/nuts holding it on, after removing those, its as tight on there as ever.. I was just wondering if its "stuck" and needed to be convinced to move. or if I need to unbolt something that i cant seem to find.

on the non turbo at least there are 5 on the pass side (theres one in the middle that you have to get with a socket extension, i missed it the first time.) and then the 2 on the driver side that can just be loosened up

3 on the driver's side: 2 for the Y-shaped bracket, than another that's pointed toward the front of the car.

Also, where the UIM meets the LIM, on the firewall side, I believe there is one bolt holding onto the hard vacuum lines.

when i did this it took me and my friend 2 hours before he got mad and just riped it off. It seems the gasket is very very strong.

upper intake manifold UIM

lower intake manifold LIM

pinkfloyd

your point??????

Why would you want to take off the upper intake manifold?. I thought we only had one. Dynamic Chamber-Intake Manifold-Engine. Isn't that the order of the air entry?

Oh...unless you're carburating right?...I'm confused.

No, there are 2 manifolds on a turbo and 3 on a NA.

Lower intake then Upper intake.

On a NA there is the Dynamic chamber too which you can take off but most take it off with the UIM part.
