I just discovered the megamouth SSRA. Both ssras are cheaper than the others on ws6store.com. how does the airflow of this one compare to the chrs1313? I don't know which one to get haha

For you, fucter, I'd go with the Chrs1313 AC version. There's a super long-*** thread about it. Chris posts a lot in it. Some good info in there.

Here's some good pics https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...air-worth.html
Here's some track results:
Previous old best on motor was
60' 1.74
1/8th 7.856 @89.12
1/4 12.309 @ 109.73
todays new best was
60' 1.674
1/8th 7.654 @90.28
1/4 12.030 @ 111.87

I'm pretty much choosing between the mega mouth SSRA and the ac version of the chrs1313. I don't want to cut anything except for the airbox of course lol. Out of them two, which do you guys recommend?

I've got the A/C version of the SSRA, and the longest part of the install was doing the free ram air mod to fit it (burned through like 10 dremel cutting discs, that plastic is freaking thick!). And like SSCamaro99_3 said, you have to drill 5 small holes in the bottom of the front bumper to attach the lower scoop. I went with the SSRA because I saw a lot of good results for the AC version, it's light, and it's hard to see unless you're looking for it (or so I've been told around town here), also it's not as expensive. And even though it's plastic, it's still pretty durable as long as you aren't running into curbs at 25+.

I'm willing to remove the ac just not willing to cut or hack anything except for the airbox of course. The SSRA seems better to me than the ftra. If I'm gonna remove the ac besides that and the free ram air, what else needs done with the megamouth to install?

If you're willing to ditch the AC just get the non AC version of the Chrs1313. There's no "hacking" anything. Unbolt the top of triangle that's directly under the hood latch, and cut the two small stanctions of the bottom of the triangle.
Takes 5 minutes and looks clean, like it never even happened. It doesn't violate the integrity of the strength of the latch. I don't see why more people that are ALREADY deleting AC have such an issue with it. It's a useless "brace" that you're cutting.
If you do keep the AC, I still vote Chrs1313 due to the sealed system.

I think I'm going with the standard ssra. Keeping ac and not worried about breaking it bc its plastic. My cars not a dd and I don't drive it like an idiot to hit anything. Anybody think this is a good choice? Plus I can get it for $159 brand new

i have a slp on mine it fits great no overheating issues and i drive mine ever day have been in bumper to bumper traffic with the ac wide open and 100 degree heat is it the best for max power and track time idk i have never had any other brand but if you want the best advise anyone will give you pick up whichever one you can get for the best deal because there in no way there could be a big power difference from one to another
and i had all my a/c stuff. the kit caome with everything and instructions on what to exactly to do.
