Intake manifold removal?

[Zac]

I want to remove my intake manifold on my EJ22 because I want to paint it in wrinkle paint and install some grimmspeed phelonic spacers. Is this hard to do and is it time comsuming?

it isnt that hard to do if you are mechanicaly inclined, but it is time consuming to take everything off the intake manifold if you want to paint it... you have to take off injectors, and a bunch of sensors, and some other stuff...

without breaking things i might add.. deff goto a junkyard and get some sensors u might break. :smt023

there is a fuel pressure solinoid switch that is $160 new from the dealer u can get 3-4 for $20 at a pick n pull that doesnt know much bout them there modern cars.

It's a tedious process, there's lots of shit attached to the intake manifold. But in a sense it's not HARD, just can be a pain hooking everything back up once it's all done. But taking it apart shouldn't be long at all.
