I didn't notice any difference what so ever removing mine weather it be volume or the car vibrating.

It's only a valve, there's no reason removing it from the air Intake system would make the car vibrate

Why do people remove this anyways ?

to put another cold feed into the airbox. the strange thing is that the valve only opens and closes when the engine is under load. not when its parked up being revved.

i thought about removing mine at one point, after using the search and finding a few threads on it it seems that its not worth bothering with and makes little or no difference.

Vibration is being caused by something else imo.

Not had any negative effects from taking mine off, only a touch louder but saves a ton if weight!! Lol

Take it off, it's only on for some crappy EU regs

 

[stephen chadwick]

did you guys remove the sender aswell or did you leave that in and pluged it ?

thanks steve

Remove the valve, bag the connector to save water getting in and plug the vacum pipe at the inlet mani

Vibration will not be caused by this.
