Re: Intake...... (KNCRSR5R)
as I understand it, you have to take it all apart.
there is one other thing. when you do the repair, the torx bolts that hold the runners to the plenum are a pain. part of the cause for the leaks is that you cannot get into it and retorque them later. you will want to replace them with a regular 6 sided nut. I would splurge and get the grade-8 nuts....

Re: Intake...... (KNCRSR5R)
You have to take apart the TPI in sections.
First the plenum, then the ruuners. Lastly the lower intake.
You can't get to the lower intake bolts while the runners are still on.
Good luck.
