Ive noticed alot of ppl have sanded and polished their intake manifold.

Do you take it off to sand or do it while its on the caR?

Is it hard to get on/off is there seals that need to be replaced if i take them off?

cheers

id highly recomend replacing the gasket in the BBM if you pull it apart. i got a gasket in my VRS kit so id say repco or coventry should suply these gaskets. shouldnt cost too much. they are only thin
