FTRA is probably the best option for non-WS6 cars. If you have a WS6 go with the BGRA (Brian Green Ram Air), it replaces the baffles in the hood with a straight-through design and directly seals to the lid. FTRA is to be used with any flavor of aftermarket lid. Some people seal off the front of the airbox so that FTRA is the only source of air and can produce a little extra pressure. Hope that helps you out.

Brandon.

I just installed mine, and I can honestly say that I can feel a difference at speed. A pretty good mod for the $

FTRA gave me 2 tenths and 1 mph faster in the 1/4. That was with just a lid.

Easy install, modest gain,... I'd say worth it.
