No, I'm assuming he's refering to ram air/heat extraction hoods. Right?

He could be referring to any type of ram air...could be done through many ways (hood, shaker, custom fabricated ducts).

The real question is why is he interested in ram air?

For everyday street use...it would be best to put your money in other mods to gain HP.

However, at the track there is cheap ways (or even free) to create a ram air system for your car.

March claims 1-2lbs of forced air (boost)on my snorkeltube application above 60mph if that helps...
