That's awsome Larry, do ya have any pics of the new setup. I always like looking at your engine bay. I still need to install mine, 98mm lid an 85mm maf are already on the car so hopefully I can get the ram air on this weekend.

If you're pulling the A/C to save 20-30lbs and add a bigger ram air kit. Then you are stupid.

If it came without air then it's just a cheap piece of ****. If he took it off for stupid reasons like you, then it's a drag car.

YES call Speed inc and prepay for it. Don't start the dragcar streetcar bullshit in here. If you want to keep your AC fine if you don't still fine who gives a **** its whatever somebody is willing to give up. Back on topic.

I don't really give a **** what you do to your car. If you can justify it to your self, then go ahead. But to get rid of the a/c only for the bigger ram air. Well seems dumb to me.

Didn't say that I didn't start it. I don't care what you do, but I still think it's stupid.

I didn't give up any comfort for it and I probably wouldn't do it again. Learn from my mistakes.


Or you can spend $40 and build your own how ever you want it.
