cold air kits
The FTRA comes with a metal block off plate. 99 % of our users never install them because it is very unlikely you will ever hit a deep enough puddle to hydrolock the motor. However, for piece of mind and to avoid being that 1 %, we include it with the kit

yea it comes from under the air lid. the FTRA is a nice kit but the SSRA and sealing the airbox to the hood are the 2 best. theres no way around it, the SSRA goes farther down and picks up more air and sealing it to the hood rams it in better and has a straight path
Facts The FTRA definitely seals the air box. A removable rubber seal is included in the kit which seals up the stock location. Only cold, high pressure air come up into the air box routed off the lower air dam.
The rubber seal is removed when the block off plate is install effectively putting the car back to stock breathing. The block off plate can also be used for testing.
Even ram air equipped cars should use the front seal for best performance. The stock hoods just don't work very well and the FTRA will easily outperform them all.
