I too have the same question. I have a 96 T/A with a suncoast creations ram air hood, but I have the K&N CAI that goes down the the wheel well. But the filter gets dirty real quick and in the rain water gets up there. Don't mean to hijack this thread or nothing. Just same question.

Put the money into SFC, driveshaft loop, LCA, or better yet for the price of ram air kit you can get an adjustable torque arm which will help your car hook tremendously. I can think of bunch of stuff I could get with the money saved from the ram air kit.

I agree it was a more of a marketing gimmick than anything.
