Re: hey look plz
Are you talking about the plastic tubing in front of the engine near where the hood latch is ?

Re: hey look plz
If you have and aftermarket filter (which you seem to have from your pictures) you can remove it.<P>It was used to send cold air to the OEM air intake filter box.

Re: hey look plz
I don't think it will help that much since the filter will mostly suck in air from the engine bay at idle and maybe a little bit of fresh air from that tubing part at high speeds.<P>But the gains will be minimal. I suggest you do another piece of tubing that would go around the filter for it to suck in fresh air directly.<P>This here are examples of what i am talking about:<BR> <A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Down ... ramair.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Down ... air.htm</A> <A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Down ... amair2.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Down ... ir2.htm</A>

Re: hey look plz
If you take that out then where do you put the hood prop rod?
