Default Ram Air Lid

Will a aftermarket ram air lid fit on a non-ramair trans am? If so will it give me the power than an aftermarket lid for my car normally would?

Ok let's get everything in perspective first. The lids on the TA and WS6 are the same, besides the "RAM AIR" sticker on the lid of the WS6. The difference is the plastic radiator support beneath the lid, which is higher on the WS6 than the reg TA. So this being said just buy an aftermarket lid like one from SLP, MTI, TSP, etc. They will give you more HP and torque along with crisper throttle response.

Well a buddy of mine said he has a lid off his ram air trans am. I think it was an aftermarket lid and he took it off before he sold the car. So would it actually be the exact same for my car?
