I've been thinking of either doing an open air box mod or drilling holes in my exhisting one. I've heard there may be a slight decrease in torque but I am wondering how much. Is it worth the trade in hp for torque and is it worth the extra noise from the intake? How much louder is the intake?

I too am wondering these things. If I swiss cheese my airbox, should I tune it to actually benefit the engine, or would it be better to leave it stock?
