Intake Silencer Location?

Saw that our cars have little silencers in the air intake. Has anybody removed these from their car? Any noticeable change in noise/power? Thinking about removing them on my car since it seems like it should be a pretty quick thing to do but I can't seem to find them.

There was an attachment in an old thread that supposedly had a picture of where they were, but it looks like that attachment is dead and I can't find any other information about these silencers besides what's in that thread.

The other post(s) on the forums have the answers to your questions. Several people have removed them, you can hear the turbos a little more, it does not increase power, and in some cases it can actually increase the turbo spool time / lag a little bit.
