I pulled off my stock air-box and put on a cylinder filter (it fit right over the mass air sensor) . Just doing that made my car much louder(in a good way), people always ask what kind of exhaust i put on it (stock.... for now

).<BR>NEwayz there was a vacume hose hooked to the old air-box, I sealed off the hose with a bolt, does anyone kow what kind of problems this will cause and what the hose is for??? Is it worth modifing my filter with a fitting, will it change performance???<BR>THanx for da help
