Ram Air Box

[WS6]

I should have been more clear. People usually put the inlet towards the bottom of the car. Which can be low to the ground. This gets the inlet away from engine heat and allows cooler air to enter the engine. This can be a better source for air versus on top of the hood which may get stagnant air due to the aerodynamics of the car itself. The dust isn't something to worry about if you run a K&N style oiled filter. You'll have to clean it more often obviously though.

As for your speeds, if built right you could benefit from a ram air style intake. However, I would simply build it as a short straight shot into the engine more so than trying to get air rammed in.



good luck. Try a google search on ram air and you should find some more scientific info
