Default Installation of a 75mm T/B, my first how to, write up

OK, here is my first attempt at a write up, hope you like it

Installing a 75mm throttle body and porting or replacing plenum.....
A few things to note that are not in the photo's,
1. When you remove your TPS it is a very good idea to use an impact wrench, they are very tight and the heads can easily be stripped out, I used a makita electric impact gun, they came right out.
2. Make sure everything is pretty clean before you start, I just took my air gun and blew the engine compartment out first, then sprayed some WD on all the bolts I was going to be removing
3. Be sure that everything is clean when you are re assembling, especially the plenum if you grind it, I sprayed mine out with brake cleaner and compressed air, very important to not get any debris in your motor!!!!!!
4. Inspect for leaks when your done, I do this by spraying wd-40 around the mating surfaces, if you here a change in rpm, there is a leak,
Also be sure to follow whatever directions your parts come with, this is just a basic overview, meant to help out if you haven't done anything like this before
