I would go with intake and exhaust first before this. It looks like you are seriously considering this. Good luck. I really don't think it is worth it for the money. But that is just me.

Eram is definately after intake and exhaust.
The Eram isn't the best Hp to $ ratio, but it still will give some decent gains.
(~7 HP in a 96 Honda with Intake, Exhaust, and Header).
I will be getting one myself after I get my TB optimized.
Every HP counts on a 4 cylinder.
1997 GL Sport MTX,
Soon to be the fastest proven Zetec around.

So, anybody know if I could effectively use 2 e-rams (super e-ram) in DDavis's intake? I also want to use aem bypass valve in the intake. I'm asking bout 2 because 2 are required to show 4-6% gains in bigger engines, so it seems 2 would show bigger gains in smaller engines.

you could use two, but you would have to get a y pipe and mount one e-ram on each end of y.
If you just put two in line you will not gain much more than just having one. The second would only add half the hp of original.
If you ad Y you will get twice the air folw and twice the pressure (pressure+more air=more hp).
Have fun, but it seams high priced to me for only 15 hp, my drop in K&N filter added 8+ hp

the y pipe thing is simple Physics think about if you have two points of air pressure pushing into one hole 100% of the air from each intake gets in, if you have one e-ram pushing on the other the you only get 3/4 of the potential pressure.
Hope this halps you understand, an if you still are not confident in me then ask more people.
I still think that if you save your money a little longer and buy a turbo from performancefords.com or even a vortec super charger you will get more bang for your buck, but buy what makes you happy not what makes me happy.

According to E-ram ( www.electricsupercharger.com )they are in-line, not in a Y-configuration. You should E-mail them and set them straight.
