Does anyone with WS6 use the BG Ram Air setup? I was looking at the BG Ram Air kit for WS6 hoods and wondering if anyone has used it? Are you happy with it, happy with the results? Thanks.
BTW: I asking in reference to a 2000 WS6.

I ordered mine last week and it still hasn't arrived. I CAN'T WAIT. I think the annoyinh part of the install is drilling out the baffles because from what I've heard it's pretty straight forward. Good luck and let me know how it goes because I will installing mine the day it gets here.

The reason why it's a PIA to install is the awkward position you have to be in to install it entire time. If you are a small guy then it shouldn't be too much trouble. Other then that it's pretty straight forward.

I've considered this kit as well but I'm curious what gain the entire kit has over just having removed the baffles myself. I realize the air still isn't being strictly directed into the intake.
Does the inch gap being sealed make that much of a difference? Enough to warrent a $200+ pricetag?

With the airbox being sealed to the hood you have a straight shot of air right into the airbox. Much more efficient.

This is the first I have heard about this kit. So it involves removing the baffles in the hood? Wouldn't this be risky driving in the rain? Sealing the box to the hood sounds liek a great idea, but can someone clarify about the baffles?

There are the front and back baffles on each nostril opening. Take them both out.
