Resonator #2 Removal

Courtesy of Keman

These are pictures of the main intake resonator. It's located under your airbox assembly. The small metal object is a 4 inch (10 cm) ruler to give you an idea of perspective. The airbox assembly has three big bolts that holds itself in place. Slight overkill in my opinion, but, remove the entire airbox assembly to get a clear look at the resonator under it.. You'll be looking at it from above, just like in the upper right picture. Yank the airbox free from the rubber triangle shroud that's attached to the fender. It will pull lose. Then take the shroud out as well, as it's going to be in the way when you go to remove the above resonator. Two bolts hold the resonator in, just take it right on out and throw it as far as you can. What will happen now, is the airbox assembly, when put back in, will draw air in from the fender, AND from under itself where the resonator used to be. The stock airbox normally draws air from inside the fender. That's nice, but the fact is, it draws it in through a hole not much larger than an INCH. Way too small for this engine. By removing the resonator you will increase the volume of air able to pass into the engine. Major horsepower gain, probably around 10. But if you've gone this far... go to the next step. =)
