This is the article i used. It was extremely helpful with all the pictures and just a great guide.
How long did it take? Humm.......I'd say over the span of a month but i'm sure it can be done in a few days. I just did a little every now and then. It was defiantly worth it though.
Can anyone give me some tips on swapping the polished setup with my current one? Any hard parts or problems i should know about? Thanks

Thanks. You have no idea how ashamed i am right now. The guy who had this bird before me went a little crazy with the paint. Take a look. I can see what what he was trying to do, but.... no. He made it look like crap.
So you can see why i'm anxious to swap out the tpi setups. lol

Is there anyway to polish the intake while it is on the car? Or is it too much of a hassle? I don't care if it is perfect, just better. And I would just want the runners and plenum done. Thanks guys.

Yeah you can polish it while its one. Just take some steel wool over the whole thing to get all the grime and carbon depsosits off. Go to your local checker ot autozone and buy a small can of Blue Magic Polish. It does wonders. Did the person who owned that car before you like the SF 49er's? anyways it looks good dude
