You gonna cut holes in it like the toyota guys??

not holes but use the bottom portion to just hold the filter in place cut it so its open but with a design. im sure no one would be able to notice difference in acceleration but it will sound cool.

They might notice a *negative* difference in acceleration if you are planning on sucking up warmer under-hood temps!

Throttle response would probably be quicker, however...

i wanted to see if i could make a cut so i would have a heat shield or atleast make one. could u show me what they did at the 4runner forums?

I removed my resonator on my 240sx to get a bit more growl out of it. . Then I got a JWT pop charger. . I think the VG would sound pretty nice with one, but I'll leave it alone . . . maybe

oh the resonator is those other tubes before the box? and is jwt pop charger good?

Well I haven't taken my R50 apart, but in my 240sx it was a box behind the driver's side fender lining. The purpose was to muffle the sound of the intake. There was a tube that went from the airbox before the filter, down to that.

I believe the R50 is the same. .

The JWT filter looks a lot like a K&N -- for the 240sx, it was supposedly the best on the market really for that engine. . I just wash it and re-oil it every 50k miles or so.

I may not put one on the QX4 only because I plan on taking it off road more than I did the 240sx
