Default Stock no more.......

I finally got around to dropping in my K&N that I got the other day. Didn't realize what a pain the arse it is to get to the filter on my car.

So while I was in there I decided to cut most of the snorkel off my lid. Left about 3/4 inch into the fender well, but that's it. Can't even tell from the engine bay, and I can hear a difference.

I'd be halucinating to say I could feel it wind better, so I won't. Now I know there's no going back. Already thinking of more free(cheap) mods.

Not exactly sure how I would do that, friggen mod motor. I don't have a distributor! There are two boxes that look like they came off my old escort, one on each bank. Maybe I'll have one of the guys take a look this weekend.
