?? God knows mate, lol

Unless they mean cutting out the intake bottle in the inner wing, I have and most people do this mod with the standard intake........but TBH I didnt notice any difference.

That's an easy one. It's after you've deleted the Snorkus. You're left with a Snorkus delete.

Clear now?

Makes no noticeable difference from my experience apart from a mildly louder turbo whizz noise.

There is a rather large and cumbersome air-resonator-box thingie under the front wing. It's purposes (from what I understand) are:

1. Keep induction noise down.
2. Prevent water/dust ingress into the air filter housing (airbox) and possibly the engine.
3. Give sad geeks like me an hours fun when we remove it

It definately increases induction noise and some people say it allows faster pickup but I didn't notice any performance increase.

If you are careful there's no reason you shouldn't be able to put it back later if you want.
