Lightbulb For those with aftermarket intakes...

I dunno if this has been covered before, if it has then mods lock this...

I also don't know if this is in the right forum... if its the wrong one, mods move this...

Well anyways, i was cleaning the filter on my injen sri with a k&n recharger kit when i noticed a small bracket that once held the stock intake resonator box in place...

it kinda bugged me that it was sticking out and was bright gold so i removed it... jus thought i would share cuz i noticed a lot of people still have this there and it looks really out of place...

it doesn't seem to have affected anything so i guess i'm one step closer to having a "cleaner" looking engine...

you can always bolt that part back on easily, it only sits one way...

thats odd, you should have it because its a part of the stock intake...

maybe your CAI piping conceals it or AEM included the removal of that piece in their installation instructions?

wonderz is on a distinguished road
I think we are going slight out of track here haha
anyways, with my ghetto race division rsx intake on a d-serie engine, i use that little bracket to kinda hold the headshield on the injen intake so the intake won't even move one bit if i pull hard on it.
you'll be surprise how those little things help with ghetto setups
