silverstang89 · March 13th, 2007, 01:51 PM

so it makes it sound different?

mikebert · March 13th, 2007, 02:14 PM

It does what it says it does. It makes the engine run more quietly; take it off and you'll instantly notice a change in your exhaust note.

You're running your car without an air filter?

It ll give you 1-2 more horsepower. buy a K&N air filter too.

took my silencer and housing off mine. it does sound better IMO.
A guy at the track said to take the screen off the MAF that would help. Anyone know about this. I have heard that taking that out kills 1-2 hp. Personally I dont feel its safe. Could suck debris in the intake that way couldnt ya?

When I took my silencer off the screen wasn't there. I guess it was already gone. Drove it the entire time I owned it like that. Not one issue with that car. Of course I also owned it less than a year.

The debris would have to come through the entire filter first to get sucked into the intake.

I just cant justify taking my screen out, ya know just in case!
Thats my convicton though, anyone else can do it if they want to.

If something is so small that it got through the pores of your filter what do you think a screen is going to do? LOL
