if you can remove the second silencer (plastic bit between the airbox and the intake pipe), that will be even better. usually people replace it with Spoon's kevlar unit.

theres another small resonator up top closer to the intake. should i take this one out too and plug it up? ive read in some other threads that this one should be left on?
