Default Air Silencer?

I was wondering where the air silencer is located on my 94 camaro's intake.

no, the one with the raised ribs is just the bellows type thing so your intake has some room to move so you aren't breaking stuff. It doesn't silence anything, the "donkey dong" is the long tube that runs down toward the bottom of your car just behind the radiator. It comes off of the intake before the bellows piece and it's there to reduce intake noise.

Depends on what "better" sounds like to you, needless to say, it will substantially increase intake noise. I prefer a good exhaust note instead of intake, but to each his own.
