TPI ram air boxes?

Has anyone used the Air Boxes that Hawk's 3rd gen makes? Do they work? Are they worth $100 bones or can something be made that work just as good?

Not worth the 100 bucks. A better 100 investment would be an AFPR or new muffler. Or put that 100 into some new tires or SLP Runners, or in your case steeper gears.

That's kinda what I thought. I have a AFPR and a Flowmaster on it right now, but those gear a killing me! Those have to go.
