Well first i used a large angle grinder fitted with a sand paper attachment. This removed all the rough casting. I used a dremel with a grinding wheel in the hard to reach areas. Then i used some 80 grit sand paper and an electric hand sander, then 220 grit, then 240 grit. I sanded by hand in the hard to reach areas. After all that, I gave it a wet sand with 2000 grit. I might go over it again with some 400 grit, then 800, then 1000, etc... just to get more shine. Its alot of work though. Spent about 3 days on and off just sanding. I'm really happy with how it turned out.

I like how you had the foresight to hide your cruise lines and stuff under the freshly polished intake..

"I want my MTV!"
That intake DOES look nice!
I spend so many hours polishing the intake, but it was all worth it in the end. My butt dyno tells me there is a nice peformance increase between 3K and 4K. Once I hook up the MTV I'm hoping it will increase the power in the upper RPM's. I also picked up a High Output injector cover as the finishing touch. I'm really pleased with how it looks, sounds, and performs!
