Removing intake resonator...

by **tangcla** » Sun Jun 22, 2008 9:09 pm

* Undo clip and take out panel filter
* Take out half of the airbox
* Undo screws that hold the other half of the airbox in place (two on bottom, one on side facing towards front of car inside the box)
* Take out airbox by rotating it and the resonator

I swapped the filter aswell to a K&N and Im sure the car feels more responsive... certainly noisier (BOV sound)

Not by much, at least not with the AVO panel filter. I can hear it only sometimes.

Wonder if the HKS panel filters are much better...

I have the HKS filter and resonatorectomy, you can hear heaps of spook up and bov sound especially when its cold out!

the resonator's in a seperate box right? so after removing it, i just re do the step to put the airbox back in?

it sits below the filter box on Gen IV's but older cars have them sitting inside the wheel well.

+1

You can also mod the bottom half of the box and add pvc piping for more cold air induction. Sleepergtb did it and looks stealthy!

I didn't hear a huge increase of induction noise when I did mine... mine must be broken!

Considerable increase in induction noise on 2.5lt. Not so much 2.0lt

it's N/A hahaha

it's the 2.0R, the limited edition one with the sti spoiler.
currently thinking about the blitz sonic power air cleaner with eifel carbon intake duct or maybe a flatt racing super intake. waiting for some seller to reply me on quotes first.

Installed 8000K Hid for the low beam today. Looks superb
