as i said before remove the hose on the intake side and you'll see a snap ring wit hthe silencer ring behind it.remove the snap ring with a screwdriver and pliers.the silencer ring will fall out.

you will definatly hear it better,and it does allow a little more air in there,thus maybe a little more hp.mainly sound though.

you need to fill out your signature,it helps people help you,when you ask a question we can look at that and know exactly what your set up is.

NO it does NOT improve air flow AT ALL it actully hurts it, The additional whistle you hear is the turbulance caused by the inlet! There's no additional air, No additional power!

Exactly but with the addition of the fact that The dodge pickups were built with the general consumer in mind, There was a demand for a quite diesel pickup that were more driver friendly so they went looking for every bit of noise dampening equipment they could find! Secondly is most of the larger turbos have the inducer and the compressor housing machined.
Hope this helps!
