Craig - your inbox is full

Yep resonator and the old intake snorkel comes out.
You get a new bigger snorkel and a resonator delete elbow + some self adhesive foam to seal it all up + a new bonnet rod that clears the bigger intake snorkel - mine did not fit well and I re-bent my old rod to clear the snorkel which looks better anyway.
I got a small increase in intake noise and every now and then I can hear the BOV but it is still quite

check out the SS Inductions web site
also available from exhaust shops and ebay every now and then.

If you can be bothered to make your own you need about 750mm of 90mm PVC plumbing pipe, a 90deg bend and a 25 or 45deg bend.
Tools - Hack saw, heat gun & PVC glue, should cost you less than $20 all up.
Jack up f/l of car & take the wheel off & inner guard plastic.
Get the heat gun & make 3 flared ends, heat the plastic till it's pliable & put it over a dessert bowl till it cools, once made cut 2 of them about 1" long & leave the other for the front piece of pipe (Diagram should show how it looks)
Glue one to the area next to the mesh near the AFM (gives a much smoother airflow into intake)
The other goes into your air box attached to the 90deg bend...pics etc should give you the idea, cut the 2 lengths of pipe to suit your car & assemble & pre fit before gluing.
You should get plenty of induction noise & my stock BOV is now pretty noisy too with a HKS panel filter.
I put the second bend in to make it harder for water sand etc to get up into the airbox, did this 3yrs ago & it's been great.
You can spray it black if you want & leave the std tube under the bonnet to make it look stock.



From inner guard to air box.



Going into AFM tube, use silicone or something similar to attach , looks like I used poo lol.
