take off the air cleaner assembly,disconnect the throttle cable/cruise control cable,take off the TB,unbolt the EGR,pull off the plenum. it takes all of maybe ~30 mins to swap 'em out.

the only frustrating part for me was get the throttlebody spring back on, but thats just because I didnt know how to do it, other then it is extremly easy.

I love how it sounds when you give it gas under the hood after you put the TB and plenum on it just sucks all that air in it sounds sweet.
