    anyone remove junk on intake manifold?

    has anyone removed all the junk on the front of the 4th gen manifolds? junk being the FIV and the IAC in order to make the area look cleaner and to get rid of all the coolant lines running through there?

    you just want the clean look? well u cant really get rid of those...maybe dress it up a bit but u can get rid of it.
    What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

    You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

      Huh? You said you can't get rid of it and then you said you can? I doubt the smog guy checks for that crap anyway. Go ahead and get rid of it.

        well for one you wont have a nice idle if u take out the cooling lines that go to the FIV or a stable one without the IAC.

          DOH!! I totally misread that. I thought he meant the stuff on the intake like the resonator and such.

          Yeah, you shouldn't mess with the stuff that's on the manifold. Its definitely there for a reason.

              Then why the hell not? IMHO the only purpose of that stuff is for fast idle and what not.

                Um... For proper operation, you need those... Part of the problem with my setup has been getting the air valves to operate properly. It doesn't matter if you are "full race" or what, you need those valves for the engine to run.

                  there has to be a way to get it to run without the valves on there like maybe cracking open the throttle a little to let the air in. i know it wont work un less you block up the holes inside the throttle body that the valves regulate.

                    well its up to you if u wanna try it. by any means, we arent responsible.

                    the IAC you cant do without though cause it controls the idle.

                    you will probably loose some reliability if u re-route the stuff, and its not worth the time.

                    if your going all race, look at something else to modify....not the upper intake manifold go for something else like internals, port polish etc.
