I believe they designed that so it is sucking colder air from the front of the engine instead of letting the air travel over the engine heating it up then going into the intake.. so i would have to say no it wont give you any more power.. i would assume it would be worse.

You can take it off and it will sound better. Your not gonna gain any power. If would put some type of a filter on there so you don't suck junk.

I would hurry up and get that motor and rebuilding it. "Fiborous material"???????????? Do you have a turbonator and electiric supercharger on your PVC intake too? GHETTO![sm=lame.gif][sm=signs003.gif]
