Default I don't get it.
Not that I know what throttle response is.

Default Just out of curiosity, exactly how do you remove the engine cover??
From looking at it, it's not obvious how it comes off. I know you have to disconnect the 2 hoses &amp; the electrical, but what after that??

Disconnect the clips to the turbo inlet pipe.. unplug the MAF and it pulls right off

Default Often when a mod produces insignificant gains, people will justify the purchase by claiming better
"throttle response"

Default also make sure to disconnect the intake hose air box to radiator .
Removing it works the best 2 T20 screws and clamp

Default Thanks--but I decided to play it "safe" and leave it alone
since it was more for curiosity's sake than anything else.
