I REMOVED WHAT LOOKS LIKE AN AIR SILENCER ON MY CAR TODAY BUT WHEN I ASKED A BUDDY AT FORD HE FIRST SAID IT WAS FOR TURBULANCE. I THEN SHOWED IT TO HIM AND HE COULDNT BELIVE HOW RESTRICTIVE IT IS I DONT HAVE A PIC BUT PICTURE A BEE HIVE. MY FREIND AT CHAMPION RACING IS GOING TO FLOW BENCH IT FOR THE HELL OF IT. I REALLY DIDNT NOTICE A DIFFERENCE IN PERFORMANCE BUT IT HAS TO HELP

It is a Hydrocarbon Trap. Upcoming emession standards dictate that fuel fumes escapeing out the intake after the car is turned off be trapped. On start up the trap releases the fumes back to the engine.

Yes it is the same 8.8" rear on the V8, but with 31 spline axles.

And PLEASE take your Caps Lock OFF, thanks.

Not only that, it costs you horsepower. Someone at The Mustang Source had their car dynoed (sp) with it in and without it. This persons dyno numbers were 4 HP gain without it.
Mine already "fell" out. I noticed a bit more torque.
