SLP Ram Air I have one of the slp ram air parts that goes under the airbox. I have a hawk so I have ram air. Is this even useful to me or should I get rid of it? Building max effort h/c any input would be great. Thanks

I've had mine on since last August and haven't had any problems!
TL;DR: +1 for the SLP ram air
Just so you know, the Hawk and even WS6 hoods are not really "functional Ram Air" unless you de-baffle them and seal the hood to the intake.
In my opinion either keep it and seal the front of the air box and get the SSRA lower extension off ebay for $70 IIRC, sell it and go with a complete SSRA or Chrs1313 ram air (still seal the front of the airbox), or get rid of it and de-baffle the hood and get a BG ram air from WS6store. If you are truly going "mat effort" I would recommend the SSRA or chrs1313 in the non-AC version to get the most air to the engine, both have been proven to work well.

Of going max effort you are leaving an easy 15rwhp on the table with the slp ram air induction over a larger NON ac ram air kit like the one I make for speed inc...
This came kit gave me 12rwhp over an slp/ftra type setup back when I was Stock internal...it was also the same kit on my car when I went 9.82 at 134mph...
What some other member feedback

Hit me up with any questions as I have been down the max effort heads/cam path and I will try and guide you from what I learned works and doesn't so much
