Removing Butterflies from UIM

[Crazy Eddie]

Can you actually remove the rotating bar aswell then or is it just a case of removing the 4 srews that hold the plates onto the rotating bar?

I am talking about the butterfliesn in the UIM as pictured aka the plenum these are there to stop you from booting it while cold, I have removed the solenoid so they serve no purpose.

My intention is to open it up to be one big hole rather that just removing the butterflies I was just wondering if anyone has any advice.

Wav did this to one of his.

Just searched for the thread :

If you go 1/2 way down the 1st page you will see the UIM

interesting reading  im going to do mine this week and look into the other ideas he  had:Talking1

just seen this, yes i have done mine and i would say removing the butterfly\'s is worth doing, porting into a single hole is a pain in the a$$ so unless your running higher power/single its prob not worth it.

the tye bar will just slide out when the plates are removed you can then fill the hole with liquid metal or simply tap the hole (m10) and screw a bolt in there.

if any one has any questions please feel free to send me a pm.
