Seen an old thread on this product a while ago. Looks cool

Ram air sounds like an incredible waste of money on a forced induction car....

 

[hotsaucewizard]

You have a turbine spinning at 200k+ RPM "ramming" air into your intake manifold ... I can assure you a plastic scoop isn't going to speed that up

Devils advocate - there's always an argument for more cold air but "ram" is a big uhhhhhhhhh

@Spiguyver recently did a video on his YouTube channel. Maybe he can give you some feedback about it.

Not much of a comprehensive test they put on their website...

 

[Mason]

Yeah that doesn’t make any logical sense

I'll probably not bother with this, but sourcing air from outside of the engine bay is a pretty reasonable thing to do to lower IATs.

 

[Thraxbert]

I have one. It definitely lowered IATs. The design of all these aftermarket intakes just causes the filter to gobble down hotboxed air from the engine bay. I keep waiting for someone to develop a true CAI with the filter in the grill, but haven't seen one come up. It'd be a huge pain to install, but would have a big leg up over everything else.

 

[Spiguyver]

Hey, right now it's tough to really tell how much it's doing since it's already cooler out. I will say that I do think the IAT remains lower longer. But I will report back with warmer weather what it really does.

I know there is a concern with Trans Temp, and I haven't seen any change in that, but again, it's not hot out so I don't expect any issues right now.

You're spraying meth now too though. We'll never know.

I have maps without Meth. I'm running one right now with no meth.
