RamAir or ColdAir?

What would be better or worth the time on a V6? The homemade Ram Air setup thats in the tech section or just a Cold Air intake???? Thanks!

hey brian, i bear u to the idea =P...

3" black pvc from intake to right fender with 90* elbow down to where the fog lights are...fog light removed and a TPI clamp on K&N behind there... it works REALLY well...and when u start the car, theres a whistle from the filter which everyone thinks is cool...

Make the intake really big and just stick the lights in front of it. It will still get air.

Or hang the fog lights below the bumper. Fog lights are supposed to be as low as you can get them, anyway. (I still don't understand SUV owners that put fog lights at the same height as their headlights!)
