How much difference did you notice Sux? I have a similar set up on my car. Couldnt verify any numbers at the track. Clutch problems.

I will take some pics this week if anyone is interested.

For you ,go with the fast toys ram air system. If you have a ram air HOOD, go with the BG ram air system.

Its basically double the gains from a fast toys ram air system. You know that great pull you get when you go from sdtock to the FTRA? well i got that same increase when i went from the FTRA to my set up. with the FTRA i went 11.8 @ 117. when i was a cam only M6. swapped out to my set up, added a 6 point bolt in roll bar, reinstalled my A/C stuff (compressor and condenser). So i was about 150 lbs HEAVIER when i went back with my set up and i still went quicker and faster. 11.7 @ 118. same weather and same 60".
These types of mods don't really show up on a dyno unless you dyno your car inb a 100 mph wind tunnel.
