Just wanted to update the thread for anyone with a 2.7l who thought it might be possible to use the 2.5l air intake to do the resonance chamber deletion; it isn't. Well, at least without some modification.

The intake tubes have different size fittings, with the 2.5l being slightly larger, in addition to a different form factor that prevents the older intake from fitting into the 2.7l. Basically, the amount of work it takes to retrofit the air intake would be better spent modifying the current one or make an entirely new intake track (at least IMO).

Sometime this week I'm going to head back to the salvage yard to see if I can get the 2.5l intake swapped for the proper intake. After modifying it I'll report back any breakthroughs.
