On my car, I'm using a scoop made by Twowheelin that plugs into 2 1/4 " hose. The hose i routed through the fender, and ended up pluggin it into my KKM filter. The whole ram air setup provides a nice gain, especially at higher speeds. The problem is, if I go into neutral at high speeds (>45 mph), air is still being forced into the engine. The revs plummet, and the car stalls.
Here's a pic that I've posted before regarding this:
Twowheelin has come up with a solution to the problem. Hes got kind of a cone at the filter end of his 2 1/4 " hose, so the air flows over the whole filter, not just the inside part. perhaps that would help...
