   Normally you do not have to remove the manifold as the IAC valve controls the airflow well before getting into the manifold.

   do you mean the idle control valve, the small sensor at the rear of the throttle body??
   
   if so disconnect the throttle cable, un-clip the 4 sensor plugs, 2 at the rear, 1 at the front and a grey one underneath,
   then i think there is 3 torx screw (T25 i think) holding the throttle body on. undo them and remove them..
   
   once off there are 2 torx screw golding the ICV on, simply undo and remove it
