i took mine off, not the car is loud as hell. im debating putting it back on until i get a chance to put my iceman in

 

id wait then see if u feel a diffrence. Does that intake go into the side weel well or in the engine compartment by any chance.

 

Do you mean Cold Air Intake, Hot Air Intake, or just a hood you bought with a scoop in it? Or did you just take the piping and air box out of the car and are running an open TB?

 

what i meant was i took off the snorkel for the stock air box. it doenst make a noticable difference performance wise, but it is much louder with out it. im going to leave it off until i get a chance to put on my iceman cold air intake.

 

Oh you're talking about the resonator pipe that goes into the air box. I still have mine in place...I did however take my air box out. I suppose I could take that pipe out, its not really doing anything for me.

 

just make sure you have some type of air filter on the intake, try getting a leaf or other debis out of the motor.

 

oh that would really suck, u would lose ur injectors and valves all at once.

 

I don't know about the injectors, but it definatlly would not be a good thing.

 

The snorkel is a big restricion. Just look at the size of the intake area on it. It's like trying to breath deep through a straw.

 

I agree, thats why I have an iceman, the intakes are very restrictive, but don't forget the neon is a family comuter car, they wanted it economical and quiet.
