I was wondering if anybody had pics of their homemade ram air "duct" pics?? I've seen a couple sheetmetal setups before, but I can't remember where....(duct to force air into air box for KN cold air kit.)

My scoop

 

BudM your scoop looks very nice. Have you had any negative experiences related to this mod (water, dirt..ext..)? My car is no longer a daily driver and I might just have to do this. Any speculation on whether or not this mod actually does anything for performance?

Thanks, Jeff
I have a cover to put over it in really wet weather. I have driven it in the rain with no problems. The only negative is that the filter needs cleaning a little more often.
As for performance increases, the car seems to accelerate a little harder at high speeds but I have no hard evidence.

 

Cool, thanks for the reply.

I did the same mod. My filter is up higher in the engine bay so it doesn't get to dirty from the mod. (at least i don't think) Mine is made from thin sheet metal and it doe sthe trick. It looks expensive from underneath but if you get close you can see how thin it is I made it in a couple hours watching tv in my garage tee-hee
