alright, so ive taken out 11 bolts so far. and it still seems like there is another bolt or 2 hidden somewhere around the throttle body. can someone tell me where the hell all the bolts are
 


Granted its pretty lame, but you get the idea..... right side is intake, left is PCV. Then iirc there were only 3 bolts that hold the throttle body to the upper plenum. I removed the upper plenum with the throttle body intact.
These were the bolts I removed to get the upper black plenum off.

Or you talking about the lower intake manifold (aluminum)?

Because #5, #7 bolts will be most likely covered in oil, and there on the inside... and that is also the torque sequence for re-install, fyi.

well im installin the HV3. and i cant seem to get the throttle body off. i only have 1 long bolt, u have 2...so i think thats the one that is still in there
 
That top hand drawn pic was only for removal of plenum, not the throttle body....EGR bracket gets in the way, iirc.
But if your doing HV3, can't you leave the TB connected?
