Its the rubber piece that goes from where your Air filter housing is and goes into the fender well.

Oops, I read his post too fast, I thought he said gain, not loss

Twitch, Thanks for posting that. When I first started here and started asking about the silencer everyone said "you wont gain anything its a waste of time".

I did it anyway and your link confirms what I suspected all along.
