Thinking about removing the accoustic valve

[dangle172]

How is this done and what are the real gains? Is there any downside to doing this? Thanks

no gains noticed when i did mine.

no downsides that i know of providing you block off the pipe when you take it off.

Didnt notice any gains. Did make it a good bit louder (induction wise).

Followed a guide on here and had no touble with it!

Felt more reponsive when removed mine. Worth a go in my opinion. Jms remove these as part of their paid package deals also. If you have the spare time get rid of it, u won't be dissapointed...I WASN'T

If you also change the tubing to the airbox you will se some gains otherwise not.

If i remember correctly the tubing I used were 63mm and they were press fit into the airbox. This mod increases the total inlet area by 60%. No need to pay lots of money for a kit, just buy some tubing and get to work!
