When I ordered a new powerstack filter to fit the 80mm maf, I decided to spend the little extra for the ram air snorkel and horn. Yes, I know it's not true ram air and that I'd have to drive 160mph for it to actually pressurize anything(assuming my filter was in a sealed box) but it does provide cool outside air to the engine, which is something we all know is very important with these engines.
Installed it yesterday, and it makes a nice difference on the highway, with no stalling in neutral problems as some have reported with their ram air setups.
Here's a pic from the outside:
Yes, I have it sticking out that far for a reason - to hopefully take advantage of the "pressure wave" on the front of the car.
And here's where it's barely connected on the inside: (heh)
I'll get the inside connection looking better once I get a chopsaw and shorten the BTR straight pipe.
I've got a better pic of the outside coming, but this is good enough to get the point across.
