Thanks guys, 87Clwy looks great is that a mod you did yourself around the filter?
Thansk and yes, it's a length of plastic wire harness wrap you can get at any car parts store (I got mine at Checkers). I actually got the idea from someone else here on the forum (sorry, can't remember who) when I asked about cutting the lid. I simply slid it on, cut it to length and used a couple of drops of super glue on the inside (at the corners and seam) to hold it in place.
how much does this mod help?
i was trying to decide what to do on mine and cash is low.
I'm in the process of moving and been too busy to get to a dyno, so I can't give you numbers. I can tell you I can feel a difference since cutting it; she's a little quicker of the light and has a little more power, especially at the lower end. I believe others have said you can 3-5 more HP, but don't quote those numbers, I could be wrong.
thanks for the info 87clwy. any gain i can feel is good enough. looks like i have something else to do this weekend.
thanks to everyone else for the pics, they look great.
