Default What else can you use with the BGRA?

I'm sure you can use an aftermarket lid but can you use SLP's aftermarket cold air induction picking up cold air from underneath in front of the radiator on an '02 WS6?

Also is the BGRA beter than SLP's "FlowPac" which uses a high flow lid and the cold air induction from underneath on a '02 WS6?

Why would you want to pick up dirty, warmer air from the street level when you could get a cleaner, cooler direct shot of air going from your scoop into your air box?

Ram Air Trans Ams have the advantage of getting air from the front, negating the reason to pick it up from the radiator cavity.

The BGRA helps channel air into your WS6 airbox. You'll only need a high flow air lid (like an MTI lid) to complete the setup. BTW, this should be in the External Section.

I thought I'd posted this in the external...looks like I f***** up. Anyways thanks for the advise. I just happen to have a Volant air intake system for the WS6 Trans Am, picked it up for $50 from a friend. Could I use the BGRA with the Volant system? The Volant system is completely sealed.
