How hard is it to remove the plenum?

The other day I took off the filter/boot, and cleaned the TB the best I could without taking it off. (wrong tools for the bottom screws) My strange exhaust sound has improved somewhat..but I think there is still some crud in the intake plenum...and possibly the blower itself...what should I do?

By the way, the reason its all dirty is because the bottom of the boot wasnt on all the way for about 2 weeks...so Im sure I was sucking some dust/dirt ect.

the plenum isnt that hard to remove, just unbolt the egr, unplug the iac, then there are 4 bolts on the plenum itself i think. the back ones are kinda hard to get to though. the blower im not sure though

The Plenum has 6 bolts, I should know I have taken mine off about 12 times.
If you come over next week Derick, I can help you out. I will have an extra plenum by next week if you are interested in having yours ported.

The pulley install will be the 21st if all goes well.
Make sure you ask for an instruction sheet when you order, mine had none.
