SLP, FTRA or Whisper Ram Air kit questions Do any of these come with a block off plate in case of rain? Do they work on cars that already have a big trans cooler on the radiator? My cooler is all the way off on the passenger side.
I was thinking of getting one of these kits, but I've never seen one on a car, and I don't know if it will fit with my cooler. A little pic on a website does not tell me how big the parts are.

Re: SLP, FTRA or Whisper Ram Air kit questions The FTRA does come with a block off plate but I belive its a couple dollars extra. I just got mine in the mail yesterday. I got it on a GP wher the blockoff plate was included in the deal. The piece is fairly good sized but I dont think you will have any issues with the cooler, you can always remount it somewhere else. I was very pleased with the craftsmanship of the FTRA unit and cant wait to get it in to see if the rumors are true about the "on the roll" increase. they claim a 5% increase in VE with equates to about a 15-20hp gain! But its only good while car is moving.

Re: SLP, FTRA or Whisper Ram Air kit questions I just looked harder at my car, the cooler is blocking half the side of where the ram air valance would be. I don't want to move the cooler, because it has the most air passing by it the way it is right now. Oh well.

Re: SLP, FTRA or Whisper Ram Air kit questions Jim,
I have a FTRA kit and a B&M trans cooler on my car together and everything is just fine. The FTRA kit works as good as advertised and mine did come with a full block off plate but I've never used it in rain yet(never had a problem).
