Recommendations for RAM air hood I'm looking to replace my hood as it has some paint chips and would have to be repainted anyhow. I've always wanted a RAM air hood.
Anyone have any recommendations? Also maybe what to avoid as well. I'm thinking 400-500 should do it ... and what material... carbon fiber?

Actually the more I look at those hoods - the more I don't like them. They're a bit too "nasally" for me. I think I prefer the Firehawk hood even over the Raptor. I think the Firehawk requires some cutting on a base TA.

I think the Superhawk hood is plug and play and no cutting required. You are correct about the Firehawk hood ....and is the reason that I won't go with that. I'm about to pull the trigger on a WS9 hood that has heat extractor ports. It's growing on me the more that I look at it. It's made by the same guy that hand builds the Superhawk hoods. I've heard nothing but good things regarding his workmanship. Part of me is super excited and the other part is thinking that that money could go towards making more horsepower instead of aesthetics.
