Default Intake silencer
My friend was telling me about removing an air silencer on...or before.. my intake i was wondering if this is a good idea? ive looked around and read a little about it but havent found anything too specific. Is it hard to remove? Safe to remove?


thanks for the help.

Hard, no.
Safe, yes.

Its connected to the stock airbox. Just give it a tug and it should come out.

Why did Ford put this useless piece on our cars?
