I would leave it in place personally and welcome to the club... ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft" Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone

Some say that they notice a better difference from removal, some say it's worse and some say they can't tell the difference. It's up to how you feel with it removed. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft" Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone

Ah, my bad, I was on about the resonator on the airbox. ________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl.
