It wasn't that hard, took me less than ten minutes with a flat blade screwdriver. Getting the rubber hose off the air expansion box is the hardest part. I drove around the block after taking the tube out and didn't notice any difference - it sounds exactly the same. I thought it was supposed to make the engine growl more?
Also, when I drove it around the block there was a real "thud" as I put the car in reverse (it's an auto)... do you think that's just coincidence or did I break something?
I have the three-speed, and I didn't unplug the IAT sensor. Hopefully it was just a weird thing and it'll be fine tomorrow.
Haha yeah I know it's a pretty pathetic ten minutes... good news is my trans stopped going "thud" and I can hear a slight whistling at about 30mph (which I'm guessing is about 4-5k)... so just for that, I guess it was worth the five minutes
get a Short ram intake, then she'll roar around 5-6k, i know my AEM does, sounds sweet.

5-6K? Mine was loud at like 3500... and its AEM aswell....
my engine sounds loud and noisy from inside the car period with my short ram intake on. can't even talk on the cell phone without people wondering what the hell i'm saying.

Dark for fear of failure
An inner gloom as wide as an eye and fermenting
Roiling hate
Death gripped my veins
Unveiling rancid petals
Flowering forth foul nectar
The space between a blink and a tear
Death blooms.-mudvayne
just throw the whole manifold away and mount a blower!
That's what I did, and I got a really sweet Roots whine out of it
Otherwise, yeah...I didn't notice anything different when I did that (before boost)
At best...your car now weights 3oz less :p
