You just have to remove the intake spider. There's a variety of vendors who offer replacements.

Disconnect electrical connections, wastegate control lines, MAP sensor line, and loosen the clamps. Comes right out.

NP -- thanks for the reps. Just be careful not to drop anything down the open plenums. There is a screen in there, but something small enough could drop through. It's a good idea to keep a rag stuffed in them if you'll have the spider off for any amount of time.

Thanks again. All went well, the boots were pretty bad that were on there so I am glad I did them.
