Follow your air Intake, Its the piece that goes from the Filter Box to the front of the car, If you take that off, you will get what i just did. I dont know what its called in a Bonneville, but in my buddys SHO its called the Silencer Cone... In the Bonny its the piece that sucks up the air, If you take that off then u got a bigger intake hole, but u still got the Filter in there and everything, It increases the Air flow basically which Increases HP,. Torque and better sound
