Sound tube mod...

I finally got around to removing the second plug (inside the engine compartment). It's not entirely obvious but you have to pop the connection off the back side of that diaphragm (towards the firewall)...just give it a twist and a tug and it will pop loose. In there you'll see the white foam plug.
So... I like it a lot...but it's pretty shrill sounding. With both plugs out, there is a bit more high frequency noise than I think would be ideal...but it still sounds pretty cool.
I'll try putting the grey firewall one back in and leaving the white engine bay one out to compare.

I'm still looking for a take-off sound tube setup.
A couple of different people offered to send me theirs when they took it off but never heard from anyone since.

Anyone remove this thing completely with a CAI? Installing my JLT tomorrow and thinking of removing the whole thing. I don't think I even hear it w/my Roush axel backs anymore.

Joe Heck Racing has a kit to plug off the holes.

If you go to the JHR home page it has a list of dealers that can sell you the parts, www.hecticparts.com
Shoot me a PM if you take the sound tube off and we can work out the details for me to get it from you.

JHR is temporarily only selling through dealers so that's why the link doesn't work.

Some people just give up to easily...
All you need to do is call one of them and tell them what you want from JHR.
Either that or you just make your own, there's not much to it, a body plug and a cap.

Drove a bit today without the sound tube after I installed my CAI. I can't really tell the difference without it. But it's hard to tell with the new sound of the cai paired with the Roush's. Car will be at the dealer for the next few days getting re-striped, I'll test next weekend with the sound tube on and post back.
