Glad you have a sense of humor, sorry, I couldn't resist. The free ram air is an interesting mod. I didn't do it because I live in Arizona and I've heard that in traffic (mine is a daily driver) that some people logged inlet temps going up by 15 to 20 degrees because now the air is coming off the front of the radiator. I'm sure it helps in the 1/4 mile because the air doesn't have a chance to heat up. I may do it someday, but only if I put on the Austin Cold Ram Air kit. Instead, I put washers under my air box to raise it up and allow a larger opening at the front. Then I sealed off the sides and back with weather stripping to keep out the warm air off the radiator. I couldn't tell if this helped anything, but I did it anyway.
