Ram air resonator boxes

[hertsbiker]

What happens if I remove the little boxes that hide in the fairing (resonators) from the ram air system on my Ninja? does it get louder / faster / or slower?

Are they needed for anything other than water trapping and noise reduction?

Errr, perhaps I'd better leave it alone! didn't want to get it jetted yet. Might be interesting to fit bigger air pipes though.

ZX6's definately have ram air - they have the carb balancing/reservoir pressurising intake inside the main air way.. maybe it is just an illusion, but RA really does work. But only over 120mph.
