Seal the airbox, or if you can afford it get the Brian Green Ram Air system.

take out all the baffles that are in the way in the 2 nostrils and you will get a direct hit into the engine and like "Q" said, seal it up. i used some weather stripping or if you can afford the BG ram air kit.

I would not do the FRA! on a WS6. You are better off listening to the guys above and removing the baffles and sealing the air box.

I did the free ram air mod and it didn't help. I went back to the stock set up and sealed the box

The only way to do it right is to get the BG Ram Air set up.

I did the FRA mod on my car, and it was pointless. Now I'm trying to find a stock lower airbox "tray" to put back on so then later I can utilize the hood nostrils with the BGRA. Yeah, FRA on my WS6 was/is pointless.
