WOW! Someone asking how to remove an airbox without anyone asking why or cautioning them as to what they are getting into. I guess it nobody's business as to why but can't hurt to ask. May just save someone from a undesirable experience. May get told to MYOB too. So why do you want to remove the airbox?
