I've had my inlet manifold off and on a few times now (MY98). It's a bit of a pain but not overly difficult. The first time I took lots of photos and was **** about labeling everything up as there are many pipes/connections. I did not have to pay any particular attention to the throttle settings other than replacing it in the reverse of removal.

Get new gaskets - especially the ones that mate to the heads. The purist will want to replace the other gaskets - throttle body etc. though I have sometimes used old ones for those

Hope that helps
