Go back and read all the articles on WHY they did this...
SUMMARY: because the car stock is so damn QUIET you can't hear the engine, I just plugged mine on the 2010....

the same thing goes for cats.
does nothing for your car, only emissions. which most of us take out anyways.
its one more thing to break and fix. unless you remove it.
same thing goes for PCV lines.

The sound tube is basically a "baseball-cards-in-the-bike-spokes" for adults...

mine is coming out when my supershaker gets installed. Gonna use the hole for all my gauge connections.
FYI. the soundtube started in 2010 GT not 2011.
