Used to be grade school stuff. Or any good sci-fi novel.

I was worried a few years ago when NASA discovered some strange "braiding" in one of the rings of Saturn. My first thought was "shit, spacecraft exhaust!"

Points to anyone who knows the name of the novel where that was the first sign of visitors who were about to kick human ass.

I'm out. No points for me. :(

To be fair it is a small amount..but its pressurized......Want proof..(TRY THIS= Remove the hose that goes into the top of sound tube(no clamp for a reason?)... turn on car.. stick your thumb in the sound tube.... NEVER doubt. Fuji heavy industries

Are you stupid?

Not only did you necro a dead thread that is almost 4 years old you're explanation sucks ass. Any hole in an intake will have the effect you describe. Also it's an inline helmholtz resonator and just shunts intake sounds those lower frequencies into the cabin, and it also prevents air from being sucked from the cabin as minuscule as it is. The same stick your thumb trick will work on the PCV tube that goes into the intake as well.

Finally you've been on the forum for quite some time and only have 3 posts? Are you trying to get your post count up for some reason like sell something?

Funny. If a kazoo is good enough for an LFA, it's good enough for a FR-S.

"Footfall". Rats, I gave it away.

Don't block the tube. It'll cost you 38 h.p. True story.

An in depth scientific explanation in how the tube works:

If you suck hard enough on a coke straw, your head resonates as well.
