I followed some advice,

and drilled a small part of my airbox today.. I haven't driven it much yet, but it sounds cool when you gas it. I also got a K&N filter.

Make sure you re-set your computer so it can adjust to your new modifications.
Disconnect the negative battery cable for 10 minutes, then reconnect the cable. Take a short trip 10 - 15 minutes so the computer can readjust itself.
 






i took the pos. and neg. cables off while I was drilling the airbox (about 30 min.) so that would reset it right?

Yes, definitely the right thing to do.
