Re: Open Element

Too much hot air. A throttle body likes cold air. BIG snorkel going up front thru the core support area.

Re: Open Element

I agree with you about the cold air. The cowl on mine helps with that. But should have it isolated and sealed with a air box. I think that's what they call it. PS. I would have tried the Ram Box if I had known about them but I have to tell you that I love the sound of my open element sucking through the cowl. Sounds great.
