Question Will JAAM work with free ram air mods?

Well I puchased a JAAM true ram air kit, and before I install it I had a question. Will the kit perform as it is intended to, even though I already have the "free mod", lower air box cut open?

Thanks in advance.

i dont have one but i dont think it would work was well since it suppost to seal the air box to the hood and kinda presurize the intake so with the free ram air mod done i would "think" it wouldnt presureize the in intake... but that what i think would happen

Yes it comes with hardware.

Chris: I'm truing to close the "floor" of the bottom tray that is lowest most point of the airbox assembly. It was cut out to allow more air in.

I'm hoping to put a new "floor" so compression will go up.
