Default One of the best engine sound you'll listen to

I did this last Sunday.

1- Removed the rear console (the one behind the seats).
2- Removed the carpet engine cover.
3- Removed the snorkel.
4- Loose the three bolts that hold the engine cover (they are three in the front section and 2 in the rear section).
5- Placed a 1" wood cube in the center between the engine cover and the
contact area where it rest when in place.
6- I tight the corner front bolts of the engine cover, and left the middle one loose (it won't even reach the hole).

I took the car for I short ride that became a 3 hours ride. I don't need an exhaust anymore. The whole experience is overwhelming. You will love the sound of the engine, valves, admission, exhaust.

My car is stock. Not a single mod.

The whole process takes about 30 minutes. You can get it back to what it was.


Try it, you won't regret!!!

Default hhmm...

pics?

Anyone else try this yet? I am curious but afraid to open up a "snorkel" and "loosen up some bolts" because I don't know what I'm doing.

Sounds like a great idea, kinda like the engine cover they sell that has a sliding cover, so you can hear the engine better.


Since I am already de-snorkeled and I have a K&N.....

I must try this!

Thanks
