The big bit from inside the bumper/wing area, have you kept it? If so, are you willing to part with it? I'm not too keen on the reverberations without it , seems to have made something inside my dash rattle loose.

What induction did you use in the end? Looks like aem V2 but longer than what I've seen. And did you notice any nice difference in sound/response?
That's more like an AEM V1 than a V2 (the V1 extended down into being inside the drivers side wing, just like that)

The part down behind the bumper/in the inner wing area, is called the resonator chamber. The bit above that is called the air box/filter housing.

Removing the resonator box shouldn't lead to any noticeable rattle/vibration inside the cabin.
Which bits exactly have you kept/removed, Scott?
