Re: I was Wondering

If you ever have ridden into a car, and stuck your hand outside while at high speeds.. you feel that force?... That air flow is tried to be collected and funneld towards the intake to bring in cooler air, or cowl hoods have tubes comming off the inside of them and feed into the TB and its like fake boost...

Re: I was Wondering

ya i agree that would be like a cheap set up for ram air - unless its a setup for ram air - its not gonna do alot - cause there will be almost as much restriction as the plastic factory air box- the only thing it will do is get cooler air there but not as efficient as if it were a cold air intake air or aftermarket ram air....

yes cant described it better really -
ram air - it forces the air into the TB by like he said blasting it in there - so unlike the factory or a short air intake where the TB is sucking the air in ram air is pushing the air in an or having there before an when the throttle opens to pull it in ...

Re: I was Wondering

ram air is a myth on our cars. In order for ram air to give you any noticeable gains in power, you going to need to be going atleast 90+MPH. Even at that, it wont compress the air, just make a very un restrictive intake. You cant compress air with air, thats like trying to make compression with a fan.
