ram air setup? does this sound right?
i want to do a ram air mod but i am not sure how to go about it. this is my idea. run a 90 pipe under the car(in the pass. fender) up through the air filter(same spot it was in but without the big square box. and then pvc pipe from the filter to the throttle body. but what do i do with the airbox(above the radiator) do i incorporate it somehow or do i remove it? please respond

Grammy i wana see how your intake looks...It was a pain in the *** tryin to get that filter in a happy home for me bt if u looke closely you can see how i made it fit lol. Oh do you hear your intake whistle from the filter??? mine when you gassed it you could hear it soo much around 2500 RPM

Man...its bad for me... Just on idle you hear it sucking in air right near the passenger fender, and its LOUD! Lemme know this time here are better directions:
118 freeway exit tampa...take tampa towards parthenia. Turn right onto parthenia . After corbin there will be a little street on your right called quartz. Turn Right. 2 streets down on the left is Acre. Turn left. Im the first house on the right. Firebird is in front
