yesssss another mpfi question

yea i might be doing this for the dx before i sell it but not if its too much of a hassle. it says something about needing the mpfi intake manifold brace, what the hell i need that?? how can u get that from someone unless their parting out the car for junk it sounds like a hard part to get, any thoughts or confirm that for me anyone? oh and i was wondering if anyone knows off the top of their head how much intake manifold and throttle body gaskets cost? thanks

from what i have read/heard the brace is not nessesary.

yeah, you dont need the brace.

it actually makes it harder to swap out the intake manifold with the brace on because you have to go from underneath to get the bolts out.

thanks guys :iceslolan
