This DIY is to remove the small resonator located on the air intake inthe engine bay. All you need is a pair of pliers and some WD40 and a plug.

step 1: undo the hose clamp either with your fingers or with pliers and remove the resonator. You may need some WD40 if it's tight. Give it a few twists and turns and it should come out

step 2: find a suitable plug. I found this lid on some random bottle in the bathroom. Make sure the plug you use is a snug fit.

step 3: shove plug into hole and put hose clamp back on. If you are worried that your plug will be sucked inside, there is an inner lip inside the hole which will stop this. It's like if you stick your finger inside the hole far enough you can feel the cervix.

Rejoice in the fact you have now added an extra 436hp at the wheels with this 5 minute and free mod! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

step 4: most difficult part. Explain to your missus why the lid is missing from her $60 french moisturiser :eek::eek::eek::eek:
