Is there any interest in a ram air kit for WS6's still? First let me say to the mods that I'm not selling anything yet, and if I decide to start selling it I will become a sponsor so please don't delete this.
Since the BG ram air kit is off the market now, is there still any market for a ram air kit for WS6's? The one that my dad has made has been on his car for 3-4 years and still looks like it did the day we put it on. The foam isn't tearing at all and still seals up perfect. We're just trying to get some feedback to see if its worth bringing it to production or not. And its not simply a copy of the BG ramair kit, its completly different.
The blueprints and instructions are already done, so it could come to market pretty soon if we decide to produce it. We're just looking for some feedback to produce it. Also, we live in south Florida, and this kit has no problems in the rain as long as you have a K&N or Holley filter.
Thanks

Definately interested!!! Post some pics or give us a detailed description on how this design works and is installed. I would pay $130 if it was a quality piece and showed some performance increases.

Not To Kill The Intrest But I Found That You Can Use A 3\4" Piece Of Insulation Form Board From The Hardware Store (i Used The Blue Stuff) And 2 Thin Bolts With Washers To Fab Up A Perminent Gasket That Works Every Bit As Well As Any Ram Air Kit Could Ever.... Also I Used A Dremel To Cut Out My Baffles
Its All Really Simple And Being To Use The Bg Ram Air Kit You Needed To Modify Your Hood Anyways I Dont See The Advantage -jmho

If the quality and performance is there it will sell. Comparison of dyno #'s and track times are key.
Also, I have been in the modding game for a while and im very suprised that I have never heard of a BG ram air kit. Ill search, but any quick pics/specs of performance gains from this.

It could probably be produced in 1-1.5 months, and the target price is $130-150. And it's been on that car for 4 years now with the original seals, and it has no problems in the rain, and we live in south florida and get some pretty heavy downpours. Let me know if you have any questions.

Looks cool. I'd be interested in a piece for a Camaro SS (even though it's not as efficient as the WS6 hood design). A couple questions....
1) What the hell is that tubing going into the lid and curled up behind the battery???
2) How did you come up with the figures for the Excel chart you made?
