Throttle body bolts!

im trying to change my throttle body bolts that conect it to the manaford but i dont know what torx size it is can someone help me?​
 


There are three studs with E torx put into the supercharger. Then the TB sits on those and it is then fastened to the SC via three 10mm nuts. Kinda sounds like you missed one.
 


i got all three nuts off. but the bolts seem like theyre in a sleev in themanafold side. both sides have reverse torx on them and someone on here told me to use a normal mm or inch socket but that almost striped it. theyre in there pretty good.
 
Wait up.

You got an NA. Take a look on the side of the throttle body at the black bracket (not the one for the cables, the other side).

Move that bracket and you'll have the TB off.
 




i mnt when the nut and throttle body are off the studs are still there. im just having a hard time with um. also i got new head lights but theyre giving me isues. teyre aftermarkets. the ones forging up and the other has a part that fell off that holds the top adjustment thread. im about to send them back.
 
Holding the throttle body on. Remove the nuts holding it to the manifold. Remove the bolt/stud holding a bracket to the front of it (kinda by the radiator hose at the engine) and it should come right off. If not..you are missing taking something off.

Since my magical powers aren't up to snuff yet.. I don't know where the EFF "vineland" is and can't recommend a buddy or any locals to give you a hand.
