Default FILPK or Ram air??

I have a SS camaro with the ram air box sitting on top of the intake and K&N does not make a fliter for it so I still run it with a Napa "Gold". Would you ditch this in favor for a K&N FILPK or Moroso?

Most people who have done serious mods to LT1 SSs have converted to a regular CAI. I would use the FIPK.

I have an FIPK and I like it. BTW.....

I'm in aerodynamics class right now with a US navy tactical fighter squadron, and they have confirmed the myth that ram air on cars is pointless. Ram air doesn't reall net a power increase until you get over about 400mph.

ive got an fipk.my car came with a moroso but the filter was nasty dirty so i just switched the whole intake.ive heard the moroso is pretty good though if you keep your filter clean. i noticed a big dif going to my fipk but i think it was mainly switching from a clogged air filter to a brand new one.
