when you take off the intake leading to the inducer you will see a cone shaped object it's a snap ring and you can just wiggle it out with a screw driver, all it is is a noise maker once removed, (mines gone)

You mean the snap ring and then the Cone looking piece of mettle behind if, or just that snap ring?

Ok thank you very much, got it done. I didn’t notice a difference at all with the sound, but then again maybe that’s because I'm running 4 inch down pipe from the turbo to 5 inch smoke stacks.

Run

a BHAF,or a scotty II, then get back with us... It sounds better with a manual as well....
