Default Ram air?

Has anyone considered putting a ram air in the S197GT? I was looking under the hood and it doesn’t look like much room for anything to go through there. (Air Hoses and such)
I saw the system on Agentfourtyseven.com where you would have to remove the lights.
I was thinking about putting it where a chin spoiler would go. Maybe a narrow air box or something.
Any thoughts or ideas?

The closest is some company that makes a system that basically goes from the front/top/radiator of the car straight back into the throttle body, with a filter in between of course.

agent 47 last I checked was working on making something to use their lower grill to try to get a ram air instead of the break cooling kit they have, as an alternative

That’s more like it. Something that can't be seen easily. I would like to try somthing with out changing my hood or head lights.

i just installed the wms kit on sunday. its the nicest cai i have seen. it just makes the whole engine bay look great, but be careful if you have any future plans for your car as far as forced induction, i think only the saleen supercharger will work with this kit. but when u pop the hood with this under you get lots of second and third lookers.

That pic above is the WMS it will look just like that. Go to musclemustangsfastfords.com and read their CAI comparison test. Actually now that I think about it, it might be from 5.0 Mustangs and super fords. Check both sites.
