BG Ram air

Is it worth it or not? Seems kinda pricey for what you get. Any opinions?

Never saw a gain...However I was not a consistant driver at the time. All in all, it looks nice.

Yes, showed excellent throttle response. Do a search this has been talked about before. Search under my username if you want to make it easier as I don't have all that many posts.

I loved mine, it dropped the IAT by about 40+ degrees. Never did back to back track testing but just the drop in IAT alone was worth it, IMO.

If I were to buy another WS6 I would get the BG kit again without question.....

Good mod, pricey, fitting it in there was a bitch. Overall, I like it!

Where can you buy the BG Ram Air, and how does it compare to the FTRA setup?
Thanks,

Does it work well in conjunction with a FTRA or SLP CAI

Currently I have the SLP version and the front of my airbox is sealed. Seems to work better than stock

Actually they will work against each other and won't make as much power as one or the other...bg ram air is by far the best ram air system you can get for a ram air firebird...the cai's are mainly for camaros or firebirds without the ws6 hood...bgramair will offer the best gains...
