Inside top cover of DPFI?

Has anybody taken the cover off the DPFI? What is the v shaped peice in there for? Does is hurt airflow? Has anybody removed it? I would have taken a picture of it but I didn't have time.

yeah I"ve taken it off and have seen it. Not sure what it is for but I would say it wouldn't hurt to take it off, just don't remove the cover over the throttle body, that's pretty important. I don't think it really hurts air flow though.

Re: Inside top cover of DPFI?

i took mine out a lil after i bought my car bc its not needed. It directs airflow to go a certain way. I actually made a thread about it when i was a NNOOOBBB. I noticed a lil difference and it made my car louder.
