^ Simple, take out the airbox complete with snorkel and throw the whole assembly in the trash such as here:



Then have a nice gaping space under the hood, with no airbox.

Like so:


Leave the vac lines hanging, they will suck in more air that way.

You're welcome

What it really means is to check the classifieds and lookout for a33ridah's thread he selling something you'll like ...then google the same question you post as the title of the thread ,but add ....../maxima.org at the end that's gonna yield you the results you'll need...

Search for the GAB mod and enjoy for now.... till you upgrade to the 75mm BBM and 4" intake.=)
