  • free air lid...easy way to cut out baffles

    instead of wasting time grinding the baffles inside the lid down with a dremel, i just did mine tonight and it took me about 15 minutes at most with a pair of pliers...just rock the baffles back and forth and go along the whole baffle, you'll hear it crack and/or it will sound like you're squeezing a piece of foam...takes probably about a quarter of the time of grinding the crap off with a dremel...especially good for anyone wanting to do this that doesn't have access to a dremel...also you might want to use duckbill pliers...those are the ones i used, worked perfectly fine...

    \"Well, we don\'t care how bad-*** some dude\'s N/A Honda S2000 motor is; if you go up against 900+ pushrod ponies and 750 pounds of earth-shaking torque with a wrong-wheel-drive econobox, you\'re gonna get a fast and furious old-school ***-whipping.\"

      I sanded mine down after breaking them out the same way he described. It makes a slight difference in the upper RPMs.

          this is the way i helped a friend of mine do it. He braught some sand paper i said fk this and braught out some pliers and did the same thing. Then just sanded down what ever was left.
