Default ws6 ram air

If I bought a ws6 lower air box instead of my stock trans am air box for my ram air hood would I gain anything from it? I have an slp air lid right now.

The best way to get the best out of your ws6 hood is to get the BG ram air. Chances of finding one though are very slim. Might want to look into the FTRA or SSRA.

i hate slp i used to have a 04 impala and the little stuff that was available for them they had.. i bought an exhaust from them and it didnt fit one tip sat 2 inches lower then the other and stuck out half an inch more i called them and the customer service people were terrible.. with their high prices and suboptimal products with less than satisfactory customer support i would never buy anything from them again...thats just my .02, i also was thinking about buying a lower airbox but decided not to unless i happened to stubble upon one for cheap...my hood doesnt have baffles and im happy with the performance
