Default Quick question

How many bolts hold on the upper plenum of the intake manifold? i took out the front two, the drivers side back, and then on the passenger side there was a nut... but i took that out also. Is that all of them?

Dont forget that there are long bolts on the top of the manifold. Sounds dumb but me and a friend of mine almost destroyed his TF because we forgot there was one on top and we were trying EVERYTHING to get it off.

yeah, there are 2 under the plate, and the plate (depending on year) can be held on by either torx-bits or philip head screws
