its a resonator box. if you remove the box and rubber thing, so its just a big hole its loud as fook, it sounded exactly the same as when I had a pipercross induction kit fitted, only without the power sapping...

drilling a few holes in the airbox (batery side away from engine) will also have the same effect

I was going to say,
sounds like the age old 'drilling holes in airbox' trick.
