So I've got about a quarter of the BFI III done today, which basically means all I did was yank out the airbox and cut some holes in it. I was going to get the egg cups in there but ran out of glue and it was far too late to go get some liquid nails.

So I put the airbox back in the was it came out. with the lower snorkel part still attached. I still haven't gotten the material to make the chamber up. That's planned for next weekend. I'll put the eggs cups on during the week.

Now my question is there is a noticeable tone difference when I have my foot planted to the floor, it's louder, a LOT louder. Should modding the air intake really make the engine louder when accelerating?

Cool, as it sounds so much tougher now.

(I really have to box it up though.)

I think he means

If you get the same egg cups as me your going to need a 2.5" Hole Saw to get them in as well as liquid nails. Wash & Dry the outside of the box before you glue so they stick.

Your going to need the headlight out to box it up though. I'm hopefully doing the box on Sunday. I'll post up how I go.
