I wish I had pics of the additional fresh air tubing I ran to the bottom of the trash can. It scoops air from below the bumper like the other setups.

Not really with an open box, but the theory is that it will pressurize the airbox at higher speeds. I was at the track with a buddy with the same mods, but I had the ram air and he didn't. I was pulling away slightly at the big end.
