I have the WS6 style from Suncoast on my 98, including the air box kit. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I do not think the factory air box will work without mods to it. With the Suncoast kit, the air comes in from the top of the airbox. With the factory box, the air comes from in front/underneath of the box.

the box will fit under the hood, but you wont get the best air flow...like TAvsGN said, it comes in from the top while the stock is from the bottom.
i have a raptor hood on my 99 TA and had to use the stock box for a few weeks after i got my hood bc the bracket to hold the new box was broken during shipment so suncoast had to send me a new one...after i switched to their box, i noticed a big difference in performance, i would definately recommend buying the matching box

once again. not to be rude, i have a 93, the ram air hoods between a 98-02 and a 93-97 are completely different, the 93-97 WS6 hood was built with the air coming in over the top.not like the 98-02 with it coming in from the bottom. i just wanted to see if anyone else with my style car and hood had done this just to see if the box will fit with the hood.
