The air intake silencer is located under your air box, bolted to the underside of the fender. If you take out your air filter and reach into the hole underneath, the bent piece of tubing that you feel is the intake silencer. To get to it, you need to pull your front passenger side wheel off and remove the splash guard. You will then see the intake silencer. It is held to the fender by three bolts. Just remove these and the silencer will come right off. Be sure to replace the bolts because they hold the airbox in place. You will get maybe 2hp out of this and slightly increased throttle response. Your engine will also sound a little louder. It's not a big gain, but it doesn't cost anything to do, so why not? <br><br>As for the wire under the dash, whoever told you that is either a liar or they don't know what they're talking about. The ONLY known way to get rid of the speed limiter is with a chip. There have been some experiments with removing pins from the computer's wiring harness over on tccoa.com, but none have worked thus far. <br><br>Hope this helps,<br><br>Kenny
