Can Ram air setup fit under the RA1 hood?

I was looking at the Suncoast Creation Ram air hood (More squarish than the standard one).

I was wondering if the Ram air setup like in 4thgen Birds will have enough clearance under the RA1 hoods for thirdgen Birds?

i havent noticed any difference in hp, i put it on in the winter so i forgot what the car felt like, what i did notice though is when it was really cold in the garage , i dont drive it in the winter, the car needed to warm up , the car was cold blooded and bogged but once it warmed up for a few min their was no prob. it i would have drove it would have warmed up even faster.Its also louder which i dont mind, i have a loud exhaust so its tough to hear .
But even though it cost like 220 for the set up i would still buy it again , cause you know that if you buy a hood like this and just leave it , its r.ice , looks but no function equals r.ice in my book .
