Default Those with BG RAM AIR Induction Question...
I've heard nothing but good things about the fit, finish, and performance of this mod for WS6 cars. My only hesitation is that I use my car in the rain sometimes. I know there is the optional rainguard, but on their site it has the usual disclaimer about it not being 100% effective, use at your own risk, blah blah blah...

So, has anyone ever experienced any problem with rain and the BG Ram Air Induction setup?

Thanks!

Tommy

I don't run the BG ram air setup since I have a Firehawk hood,but I cut out all my baffling so it's a direct shot and I have no problems in the rain.I make a point not to floor it in real heavy rain.
