yea it will and you can hear it a lil not like and open intake thgouh i mean its not a bad thing to do id say about 60% of the guys on here have done it myself included b/c i personally like the stock look
i thought someone on 3.8 had a dyno showing that removing that actually lost power, not much but still a loss, dont remember exactly, however it may be a little bit different, but i have personallyseen dan04cobras car run a 13 flatwith no air silencer in it (well mild humitity but still)

It makes no sense that that would make it lose power. It is essientaillymaking a bigger area to pull fresher airI woulndt say it will add any but how would it hurt the performance? It's still close enough to the fender to pull cooler air in from there its not like a SRI that in my opinion pulls warmer air but has less resistence so would cancel out that idk maybe I'm crazy butI think your crazy to say that wold hurt your power at all.That being saidI have not seen that on 3.8nor will I search it as its ludicrris to think such, as there could be more factors on that dyno to affectit in a small way to say it was the removal of the silencer.To make it valid to me would take several cars running both and having more or less the same results.


Take no offense at anythign said its just my opioion. and I've been shut up in my roomwitha 101 temp all day so im bored
