get ahold of someone w/ an air compressor and tape of the 3 holes closest to the throttlebody opening and blow inthe last one w/ like a circular pattern anything that doesn't come out the throttlebody hole will get stuck to the tape then wash it out again

ok i did the pressurize thing with tape and it got a bit more out. The problem is when I go in with my little magnet there are little specs of metal that still come out. I got as much as i could but do you think these little pieces could really hurt my engine?

Aluminum isn't magnetic, what all shit are you picking up in there?

are freddy manifold made of aluminum?

if u did the pressure thing i woud recomend while in the hot water get some soap or something like that take a brush or something like the toiler cleaner brush (LOL!) and scrub the inside a bit in case some shavings are sticking to the inside...

the maifold is aluminum but i guess it was the stuff i was grinding with. not sure? hopefully i got everything. not much else i could do. guess ill find out when i get done with this turbo upgrade witch is a lot harder for me than everyone says it is.
one more off topicquestion. if my ecu is getting tuned for a z32 mafs, do i still need to program my afc neo to 4in 2out or whatever it is to read a z32 maf or do i just let it be?

Garden Hose with sprayer nozzle, or power washer (a bit extreme)
