so you dont get any improvement from removing the silencer?
and does it just pop out of inside of it? Thanks
It's hard to feel gains from an intake mod. More cold air on demand is always good. I said "0" gains above. That doesn't mean you wont have them, you could.
I cut my air box thinking it would help but after reading this I realize it's warmer air think I should fix it?
(edit: thanks tarajerame I got a new airbox and did your mod works great)
you can always get another filter cone cover end from a wrecking yard, it's what most of the V-6 do

Heck yea, I also just put in this set up on my 99 f150 with 7.5" lift and 35's and I noticed a difference an hour later once I got on the interstate at some higher rpm's..plus, it looks cool, gives better, and projects are always fun!
in case anyone was wondering this works just as well on the NBS 2 valve 4.6 trucks

If you want to get this done in 10min or less I'd suggest using 3" PVC sewer pipe. It's thin wall requires no grinding and slips easily into the fender hole!!!
the one truck that was dynoed produced over 8rwhp and the K&N tested previously to that produced 10rwhp so I'd say on a cold engine in a cold shop or on the street probably 8-10rwhp
