Just changing the intake or axle back will not make much difference to the passerby. I doubt anyone but yourself will notice. I suggest you save your money for looks instead of sound/performance because its kinda pointless.... and this is coming from someone who has an R18.

Remove your axle back...it's not too loud and it sounds good. Free mod.

Like I always say.....Modifying cars is a hobby not a sport and Hobbies aren't free. If you can't afford the parts you might want to think about an ant farm.
