few questions on silencer and resonator removal

[RustyBaker]

1) Is this going to be something i regret doing? Is it going to make my car run like crap because it is sucking in hotter air?

2) Will an unexperienced car guy be able to pull this off?

3) Is it a bad idea drilling holes in the air box?

4) Is the sound noticeable enough to make this worth doing?

5) would you do it to your car?

6) is this link http://www.lincolnsonline.com/tech/00024.html everything i need to do?

thanks alot

it's all good I've don't to both my Marks , I even pulled the cone off my 1990 town car , the quick cap is ez..... the hardest part was find one in home Depot,

removing the cone was a little hard big hand in small places, but my 13 year old son could do it , then again he could do the front breaks on my car in under a hour.

I mean hell look at the hand in the pics hardly dirty.

do you think that i need to put some kind of air filter in front of the holes that i will be drilling into the air box?

no, everyone always freeks out. Your drilling infront of the filter so it has no adverse affects.

btw...drill one big hole...no stupid little holes.
