Okay, for some reason I have been around a year and still don't know what the VIAS is....anyone want to enlighten me?

 

variable intake air system. Its a device in your manifold that consists of a valve (lack of a better term) during low to high rpm (after 5200) to allow better breathing for high rpm performance.

there are quite a few nuts, sensors, and lines to remove. I'd say about 1-2 hours if you've never done it before. 30 min-1 hour for a pro with the right tools. You'll need to take off the throttle body, the throttle cables, all the lines, disconnect sensors, and the bolts that hold the rear of the manifold onto the block.

 

i have a service manual that will help you out. email me at jttaylor155@yahoo and ill get it to you as soon as i can
