Can you say PLACEBO EFFECT (soon to be renamed the Obama Effect)?

It does absolutely nothing for performance whatever - it's a sound abatement device, nothing more.

It does improve the intake sound, and that's reason enough to do the mod.

But just don't kid yourself that you've unleashed some hidden HP Genie.

Cheers!
