thanks man, that site helped, one more question, would it be ok to run the engine without intake on to see if it works so i dont have to put the whole intake set up back on and off?

I wouldnt do that, its gonna run like shit. The mass air flow sensor is not gonna meter the correct amount of air. Not a good idea. Pretty much a huge vacuum leak.
