i just bought an '89 formula 305 tbi. the previous owner had installed the earlier t/a ram air systen.

on mine, the opening on the airbox that mates up with the air cleaner is smaller.

i haven't driven the car much yet as i still don't have tags, but i feel no difference with the flap open or closed.

within the the next few weeks, i'm going to have it dyno yuned and take it to the drag strip to establish a baseline for the car. i'm going to check it with the flap opened and again while closed.

i'll post the results when i get them.

I don't think RAM air helps much on the dyno. You should notice a difference at the track though.
