I seen a guy doing an airplane engine and he used intrude in order to make the space inside a cilider for the propeler? Can you do this sort of thing in maya as well?

Second question would be, if you extrude the face inside the polygon, is there a way the edges would also be extrudes?

yeah, instead of moving the extruded polygon out- you move it inward. It's still called an extrude

Oh I have tried that but then again, what do you do with the remains of the edges of each face when you extrude inside?

Are you still looking for an answer on this? Or are you good?

Go to polygons->tool options->Keep faces together.
Should fixed your problem.
I had the same problem when i was first starting, but a few tutorials took care of that.

Yes sorry, I was quite bussy recently with other projects.

I tried what have been sugested, keeping the faces togheter, but when I extrude face inside the edges from each face are still remaining in the same place while the faces are extruded inside.

Don't think I understand the question, but when you click on keep faces together, you can't have the geometry. You have to click off it, then click "keep faces" together or whatever is in that category, then click back on the model and extrude.

This one stops the problem with the odd extruded faces, since it does not create additional faces between (getting the effect you see in the thread I linked to. I am pretty sure there was another one somewhere, that does cause this effect, and if you turn that one off, then when you shrink the faces, they all shrink separately. can't find it at the moment though (or I am thinking of another program)

Maybe you somehow got your normals reversed. Check to see if your normals are all facing outwards in custom polygon display. If it is facing opposite directions, then go to normals in edit polygons and reverse the face.
