which is better?!

I have a 89 Iroc Z. SO it has that good faction set up with an easy way to get ram air through fog lights. What is better using that set up with k&n with ram air or building my own custom cold air intake with the k&n cone filter?

The fog light one is cheaper, and it would probably help more at higher speeds than the cold air. That is just my opinion though.

Hey,

You should prolly pickup an air foil. You might actually have problems at higher speeds w/out one.

im not worried about high speeds for the ram air. What a cold air intake be better for driving about 0-60? i dont normaly drive at high speeds so.

It really depends on the motor. Cooler
are is more dense, you'll get more of it in the motor. But running lean is no good either.

I have big injectors, and big heads so more air through myu crappy throttle body helps a lot.

The Mustang 5.0 people always claim that the cold air was "the best thing they ever bought"
