Hey guys! First post! I have a 97 5.0 Exploder that I daily and I was interested in the benefits of an air box silencer delete. Has anyone done this to their 97 5.0 and related models and years? I have heard that it makes the explorer louder, which is something I would be interested in doing, especially if it is free. (Undecided on whether or not to put too much money in my ol' 225k explorer, so not really considering any major or expensive minor upgrades at the moment.) Additionally, does the silencer simply pull out or does it have to be cut? Images/videos are welcome!

Put a k and n air filter in the air box, don't mod the box
Clean your maf
Add dedicated ground to coil pack bracket
Add a dedicated ground from fuel pump/housing to batt negative ground

Drain transmission and torque converter and replace filter and all fluid, mercon V
Install larger secondary trans cooler.

Do all that and your good untill you drive it hard and crack the exhaust lol,

welcome to the family
 






What benefits will I see from doing this? Also what does adding the two grounds do? Thank you for your help!
