Just remove the complete plastic cover from your engine. Disconnect the little tubing that's also connected to that cover.
Close the hood and than go for a small drive (the air isn't filtered so don't drive for a long distance). Enjoy the rooaaar that comes from that little engine just great.
just randomly passing through, and i must say...... bad idea. just the one little bit of gravel or passing bug gets in the wrong place (or a dust cloud, water splash etc) and you've now got foreign material in your throttle body, valve train, cylinders.........
i've revved it - stationary - with the filter off before, but only because of an emergency (was seriously down on power and was seeing if a dust cloud driven thru the day before had clogged the filter - yep!)... it does sound a whole lot racier but there's no way I'd even drive my 'shed' that way let alone an expensive new or last-3-years car. Its unlikely you'd get any damage caused that way fixed under warranty if they figured out that was the cause - you've willfully removed one of the important engine protection devices after all! Like taking the fuse out of a cheap kettle's plug in an environment where its likely the thing may get soaked....
borrow an induction kit from a racer friend instead! or hole your exhaust (a good scratch, strong saltwater, wait a week), and see if you can get THAT patched on warranty..
just great.
