    I just replaced mine. U will need basic tools. Wrench, sockets, extensions, ect. Also u will atleast need some knowledge on how 2 work on a vehicle. U have 2 remove the fuel rails, supercharger, intake, injectors, wires, and remember how it all goes back. Bad thing is that alot of the little plastic vacuum hoses can break and need 2 be replaced. Also make sure everything is clean b4 putting on the new gaskets. When u put the intake manifold back on u need 2 follow a certain bolt pattern when reinstalling it, if not u can break the intake manifold, i suggest get u a haynes manual from advance auto or somethin, it helped me.

    I did it a couple weeks ago, but thanks.
    Everything worked out real good except now i've noticed that i'm loosen coolant somehow. There's no puddles under the car, everything on the motor looks dry, i replaced all the elbows and o-rings, and there's no water in the oil so i'm stumped at the moment. My only other guess is that it leaks while i'm going down the road.
