iv tried to put on my manifld but i cannot get my throttle body off, what is the best way to do this, would it be better to go underneath my car and access it there. also are there any side effects to this inlet manifold? thanks.

i seem to remember there is a bracket on the side of the engine that holds the throttle body on and also the throttle cable.There are 2 or 3 bolts on the bracket that need to be undone to release the bracket/tb

the only issues i had was i needed to extend the wiring for the tps and icv and also the eml used to come on when i ragged it.You will also fing it a bitch to find the right pipe for the airbox to tb (think they come from a td cavalier) and also you really need to feed the breather pipe back into the inlet or buy a catch tank if you dont want oil on your drive.

ah ok didnt know about the corner section lol.Its the breather pipe that originally comes from the rocker into the air piping that connects to the tb.As the piping has been removed the breather will be venting to atmosphere and ideally needs to be recirculated back into the inlet but with the powerbox it doesnt.

No as its a pressurised system mate.Id do a ghetto fix for now and either put a small filter on the end of it or use a robinsons squash bottle and just feed the pipe into it.If you read the link a lot is explained in there!
