Is it ok to remove the plastic air deflector that's infront of the radiator?

What is it for?

thanks

 

it deflects air into the radiator.

it is needed to get air into the radiator.

do not remove it.

how about those Ram Air kits like the FTRA that blocks the radiator? the reason i want to remove the delfector is to see if i can play around with a homemade ram air.

 

NO dont remove it, your car will overheat. unless you got some other way to get air to the radiator

 

yes, i agree do NOT remove it its needed to cool the radiator

 

 

go ahead and remove it.........

















if you want to buy a new motor.

 

(Don't remove the air deflector)

 

The air dam makes the air go upward into the radiator. A SLP Intake goes infront of the radiator and the air deflector feeds it and the radiator, since the radiator doesnt get its air straight on,

 

ok ok....you guys scared, i mean talked me into not removing it....whew, glad i checked here first though (it felt like a good idea)

 

what is the part number for this piece? mine is all bent to hell, its off the car right now and i wanna get a new one on. u guys know the part number? and the car does run a little hotter by about 15-20 deg.

 

when i had my grand am it broke off, it was off for a good 4 months, all i noticed was a little increase in temp, nothing huge...i would think that it would be fine to take off for a little bit i you wanna play around with a homemade ram air, but in the end i would prolly want to incorporate the air deflector back into the car with your homemade ram air setup...

 

wish i could find this part number, all the ones im seeing im not sure if it is the piece i need, its not too clear

 

Dont remove your air dam. What are you thinking

 

he already said he wasnt gonna do it, everyone scared him lol

 

My friend has a pretty good home-made setup on his t/a. dropped the iat temp about 10-degrees. Ill get some pics for you

 

exactly.. couldnt have said it better.

 

why do people always want to remove the airdam?

 

anyone know the p/n? i wanna put mine on but the old one is all tore up

 

because they want to over heat
