did anybody buy the ram airboxes from ebay? do they work good? what were the gains? are they made good?
thanks

 

hey. i didn't use the ebay ram air boxes but made my own almost excact to the design. it took a lil creativeness, chalk, and a good cutting tool, but it wasn't too hard once u got the idea. i saw a .2-.3 second gain at the track and about 1-2 mpg gain on gas mileage. good for a cheap mod. just don't go flying threough puddles or nothing. lol then you'll have problems

 

i tried making them but couldn't get it to fit right, no body got them from ebay?
thanks

 

I was thinking about getting the TPI aircleaner snout for my car (which is TBI) and then getting these ram air boxes so I am interested in this as well. I am kinda suspicsious because they don't show pictures of the actual product, just a drawing.

 

there is a pic of them if u scroll down more, but its a little blurry
i just want to know the quality of them and how they perform

 

I have been thinkin on getting these for a while. But first i want to speak with someone who has tried them. Havent found one person yet to have them.

 

yea i can't find anyone either, but i remeber seeing a post about this up a while ago. I know they will work, but I wanna know if they are made good and what were the gains.

 

at Thirdgen.org they had a thread on Ram Air Boxes a while ago. people were saying that once they hit 50-60 mph and they hit the gas it would just take off. But under 50mph u dont really notice anything, except on the acceleration.

 

sorry im late boys. i purchased the exact boxes your looking at. once you get them in and stop cursing screaming and throwing a fit. youll have to put bandaides all over your arms. but i love em you can really feel a difference when there on there there made decent they fit ok your air lid will be raised up an inch and coupled with k an ns they ruleee. other companys stole that kids design and charge like 150 for em get them NOW thier awesome much much highspeed gain

 

someone have a link to where they are located on ebay?

look at the top pic on page two of my cardomain site

get a 2.8L box so it has the IAT in it, I paid $10 for mine from a junkyard...top and bottom

 

You shouldnt feel a difference until about Mach 3.5. Ram air at car speeds is a myth. As for the original question, I wouldnt spend any extra cash to get ram air over a normal CAI, just get the cheapest functional one you can find.

 

no place for you here formula. everybody trys to say my experiences are myths with the ram air box if its ramming air bringing in cold air making a sandwich, or rubbing my ***** whatever its doing the ****in thing works the boxes make a difference i can feel it

 

Whats your point? Of course they make a difference, I never disputed the benefits of cold air induction. Reread my post before you go on some childish rant.
