Air intake
Is taking off the plastic covering on the stock intake cause any problems? I heard that taking it off gives the car a little more throttle and makes it a little louder. I have no idea if its something worth messing with. Any thoughts?

the cover? I would leave that on. Check 3g garage, they have a write up on how to remove the lower half.

I would suggest not removing this unless you replace the stock intake with an after market unit.
