To answer your question Melt, theres four screws on top plate of the manifold. Take those 4 off (disconnetct your intake pipe first) then theres one screw holding on this gold plate. Take that one screw out and it just comes right out. You more than likely wont get a gain out of it but so far a few people have done this and nothing bad happened. I did it almost a year ago and Im still going strong. Get that MPFI in there though already!!
