Air Silencer Reply #9 – August 03, 2007, 03:50:34 AM Here it is:I'll go and buy a K&N filter tomorrow, after I find a mint airbox at the J.Y. or order a new one from Ford. Oh and I didn't notice any thing after the removal. Next question:I read I can bump up my timing but only if I run a higher octane, I run 92 and 94 everytime I fill up so I assume this would suffice?

Air Silencer Reply #10 – August 03, 2007, 05:19:20 AM Yep that is your silencer. I removed mine in the RRI parking lot at CJ, and installed my CAI. You can bump the timming without running higher octane fuel, you just have less of a window of degrees to do it. I noticed a huge difference after both mods. Quote Selected

I noticed a huge difference after both mods.Did you do both at once or just one at a time? I did each one at a time and I really didn't notice much of a difference after taking the silencer out. I noticed much more after bumping the timing:D Oh and I really noticed a difference on the HO when going from 10*-14*. It was much more pr0nounced than on the stock 5.0. Quote Selected
