Default Removed My Air Box

Damn what a difference!

Bit of horsepower gain and a throatier engine sound. Really like the difference a lot. I have the K&N air filter now attached to the top of the air box, but the box itself is removed.

don't brake his heart, just tell him butt-dynos are very reliable...there R many ppl who hav removed the resonator & replaced the paper filter for a K&N just as U did. for me, as long as U got your hands dirty w/ a DIY, Do-It-Yourself, it's cool.

Yeah its a bit more noisy, LOL. I dont know the pickup seems a bit better. It maybe in my head I dont know, I dont care. Oh well.

I like the noise that it makes a lot.

Will my fuel economy be changed drastically without the air box?
