The soup bowl is that bowl looking thingy under the breather lid.Use a grinder or sawzall to cut it off as close to the lid as possible.The advantage is more air down the intake,you may also see a small increase in mpg and power.The only dissadvantage i know of is the engine will sound a tad louder.

Takes 5 minutes tops, even including the commentary wile grinding and joking with the helmet after it is off.
