Instead of making a your ram air hood functional, just get a Fast Toys Ram Air kit or Super Sucker Ram Air kit. They yield better results than the stock ram air system.

All you have to do is drill out the rivets in the stock Ws6 hood in order to make it functional. There are 3 baffles behind the air inlets, just drill their rivets out from behind, and pull the pieces out.
A sealed box cold air system drawing air from the Ram Air hood will yield much better gains than one drawing air from the bottom of the car. Especially at lower speeds.

The next best thing to the BG system is the Volant Cold Air system, it draws cool air directly from the hood inlets using a sealed box and dual cone filters.
