Removed Intake Muffler, Sounds great!

Hey guys, My saturday project was to remove the sound muffler from the end of the intake tube near the throttle body.

It sounds GREAT! Since i already Desnorkeled, i already get that great intake growl from 4800 rpms and up but now with the intake muffler removed, i get this great deep growl at lower rpms that i can sometimes feel in my chest and back which starts at a suprizingly low 2800 rpms.

Since i couldnt find a plug to cap off the intake tube where the muffler once connected to, I bought a 60 second epoxy from autozone, mixed that in a plastic deposible cup which i cut 2/3rd's of its height away and plunged the portal where the muffler once attached into the cup full of epoxy and let it set for 3 minutes then pulled the cup off and let it dry for about 20 more minutes before installing... If you want more growl and dont want to buy a $300+ intake which is basically a peice of tube, then i recommend this mod for you!
