I think you are seeing words that aren't there? Feeling ok? As I said in my post, I understand the science behind intake resonators is rooted in fact; it has to do with the pressure wave harmonics at particular RPMs. However, I have removed the resonators in most of my cars and never have had an issue... That is just me sharing my opinion. I never "proclaimed my anecdotal opinions on engine efficiency as fact." Take a breather man.
