under the lower intake manifold.

basically...

remove intake
remove throttle body
remove BS plastic panels in the way

remove upper intake manifold
remove fuel rail
remove lower intake manifold
(you can do these all in 1 unit if you try hard enough)

and then below it is the 2 knock sensors.

thats it basically....
