when you say that you love the sound it makes without the silencer, do you mean it sounds like a turbo?

remove clip connecting intake tube to air box, pull it out, put clip back on, call it a day

kinda. The sound of it pulling air in like a vacuum almost... mixed in with the whistle of it like a turbo. If you have ever stuck your foot into it and heard the muted roar from the engine other then the roar of your exhaust. That sound.

So its easy and makes it louder... I know what Im doing tomorrow morning

Oh and is it legal?

I noticed a great difference in performance on 99 Cherokee sport after changing my old filter to a new Spectra! It shifts faster and better, plus I feel it in the throttle! It's worth it! Also, days before changing to new filter I put a cleaner t.b. on aswell as checked a few sensors... VERY WELL...

^^^ just FYI... you resurected a 9 year old thread....
