It's still a power adder. You'll have to unhook it if you run that other Lightning.

If you take that off will it void your warranty at all?

I was trying to figure out where in the hell that thing was suppose to go when we did Chris's SC swap. Then I realized what it was. lol

They make a kit to delete it or im sure you can just make one. I doubt any warranty claim could be blamed on removeing a useless piece of tubing. Most people say they notice no difference with it on or off in the sound.

The new M5 pipes it in through the audio system. Haven't heard it yet.

Not hardly, but even worse. Stupid shit cake decoration is a piece of plexy glass in the middle of your hood so you can see the supercharger. Thats because the car is so slow with a supercharger, you have to see it to believe it has one...:hide:
