    Default VN Bottom Airbox V6 & V8

    Wondering if the bottom piece of the airbox is the same for the v6 and v8? as in the need of one, and will be hitting wreckers tommorow.

    Thanks

    i think have an airbox here you can have for free (bottom section only)
    i modified it by cutting another hole beside the one where the air duct goes.
    made a nice difference in performance and it also made the exhaust louder/growlier.

    located in dandy if youre interested

    The exhaust?

    Don't you mean the intake noises?

    People are too obsessed with how much "power" their car makes....it doesn't make power, it produces torque, from which this mythical "power" figure is calculated.

    then just sell the other box for a small loss

    exhaust manifold gasket perhaps?

    do this on a dead cold motor

    start your car and pour water over the gaskets, if you see bubbles you have an exhaust leak from the gaskets.

    is it a 6 or an 8?
    mine has a pretty loud induction noise when i plant it

    dunno if it's common, but i had the intake arm between the air box and the TB came partially disconnected at the TB end, guess you could check if it's the same prob on yours
