Yeah I've thought of that since I do live in the country the is a possibility that I could suck a plastic bag or bird up the snorkel. So every two weeks I'm going to check the snorkel and piping and my filter for such a thing...

I got the JL Ram Air Kit. And here are my results. The Bracket JL sent wasn't long enough to fit. So I made my own bracket. A 1 hour job turned into a 3 hour job. My tire rubs the pipe on hard fast left turns.

As for seat of the pants results. I miss the sound of my airaid. I could notice much faster acceleration in the higher rpm range. This kit is definitly made for a person that goes to the drag strip a lot. As far as someone asking me if I would do it over again. Well we'll see about that has time goes on.

If it isn't ram air why is JohnnyLightning advertising it as that... Isn't that false advertising... someone alert the B.B.B.

Does "Ramair" affect the MAF sensor at all . I was wondering if turbulence could throw off the readings from a smooth homogonous flow.
