Carbon emissions thing? Only thing I saw in the airbox lid was some type of white foam or something. Wasn't sure what it was so left it alone.Get the rest drilled out too.
Also remove the carbon emissions thing in the lid of the air box as it blocks flow and helps quite a bit.
Doing these kind of mods on the stock air box can easily gain 10HP on a tuned car.

Looks like I have some DIY mods to add on the list. thanks for the infoRip it out, it blocks flow.
I've got my stock air box maf flow from 42lbs upto nearly 44lbs but removing that emissions / ham sandwich thing, drilling out the honey combs, fitting a velossa big mouth and K&N panel filter.
So if I open the grill honeycomb up and remove the emissions foam thing, I will improve air flow and no need to do anything else? No ill effects from doing this?Rip it out, it blocks flow.

Yes I used a dremel with an 1/8" collet. So for example just one honeycomb, first business was to put an 1/8 drill bit in the dremel and drill the six points thru. Then drill between the previous drilled holes. With about a dozen holes i just used the side of the drill and force to chew around the drilled pattern. After that I used some small to medium files to clean things up. Be sure when drilling to stay away from the very edge. It will allow you to file out any irregularities. Also be aware of the dremel body and any drop lights so you dont scratch or booger the grille plastic or bumper finish. Now if you have a real steady hand you can work in a dremel side milling tool which I did on some of the pockets but they like to grab easy on plastic. With all that said now you guys might have a better way to do this like removing grill etc. I will say it did take a bit of time and patience so good luck to ya!What'd you do this with? Dremel? How long did it take?
