does anyone take out the 2nd filter
 

I was curious if anyone takes out and doesnt use there second filter that is int he stock intake tube. And if you did take it out did you have a difference. Thankyou

My 06 did not have one, I read somewhere that they only out them in the 05's.

I read in Modified Mustangs magazine about this. They removed that piece, which is a vapor trap, and gained 4 horsepower at the wheels! Testing was done by Alternative Auto.

The vapor trap prevents fuel vapor from escaping through the engine and out of the car via the air induction system.

yeah i read up on an old thread and saw another dyno where they gained 6rwhp and 5rwtq from removing it.

i just took mine out. ;)
