FU*K IT!!!! Just take some A/C Piping, you know the ones that bend and you find them on the back of your laundry dryers..... Use that and filter that damn thing all they way to the bottom of the car to get a "ram air" effect!

A cold air intake will give you .000017623 horsepower. It isn't worth it.

Hey thats what I did... lol. It was a prototype. I still am going to make one out of fiberglass... No lie it did work, I saw much better throttle response and it felt quicker... If you are a non beleiver of the effectiveness of ram air or think its useless. Read this entire article, then tell me what you beleive then... http://www.vararam.com/ramairinaroadcar.html
