Id say that a big 10 4 :)

Or atleast it seems like it, I just installed it after looking at Mrwilsons, mods.

Except i have a Gen 2 and was just a tad bit harder, also i hid mine behind the slits of the front bumper so not as much crap would get in.

anyways the first movie clip is before the ram air mod, the second video clip is after the ram air mod. lemme know what you think

Killer tune, do you have pictures of the install?

No i can get em tommorow, its 3:00 here now srry,

Does it seem like the mod helped?

also this is my friends BMW m5 Dinan edition

You tell me. I have the same LMS set up in my '97.

:cool: :cool:

im going to stick with my first oppinion of most definatly works. no doubt about that. for me, i have to redo mine, prolly outa stronger material, or just go find an lms one someplace.


first pull took 10 seconds from 40-80
second took just shy of 8

thats a pritty good drop imo.

I find it difficult to believe the ram air mod took 2 seconds off the 0-100 time alone. That's almost like doing the quarter in 14 after running a 16.

not 0-100 , 40-80.....go watch the vid clips yourself.

obviously there will be some diffrence in the two situations...its night time in the second clip so it will be cooler and less humid...idk the rest of the factors, but ill be willing to say its up to 1.5 seconds of variable.

what ram air are you guys talking about. whats the set up for it

theres two being refered to...the one i created for $10, and then the LMS one that is not in production. mine is just a piece of dryer ducting that goes through the hole in the fender well, through the wheel well down below the front bumper, and then zip tied it down. ...idk how nitro did his, he would be the one to talk to about doing it on a gen 2, but thats how i did mine on the gen 1.

btw, whats the name of that song in the video.

i got a gen 1. i might have to try that today. i am already going to cut my mufflers off today anyway. why not do something else also

I find that hard to believe, and this coming from a guy who has a March ram air set up on his car.

Dyno the car with it off and with it on.

I agree with tom... it "might" help throttle response slightly, but there is no way your seeing any noticible gains (just like a highflow filter).

you "might" (and I use that term loosly) see a small gain at high speeds from loading the intake with air, but I highly doubt it's much

hey guys,
like I said i coud tell a slight increase in power, but was just wondering if you guys could see it at all?

I will take pics of the set up today.

and btw The song in the video is Diamond knights, destination diamond, i believe

The video i made for my friend is the same band but called "girls attractive"

let's see some pics!

I dont think it would show up with a dyno ..... the car isn't moving IE no air to ram.

I did the same thing to my 1990 town car .

oh and i didnt mean to come off sounding like a dick or anything either :) no offense intended

To be honest... Your car looks slow.

lol, exactly what i was gonna say.

The ram air effect might not make a difference, but the decrease in intake temps might.

Unless he already had a true, comepletely sealed cold air kit with high efficiency insulation in the first place, he is definitely seeing cooler air temps now.

Here are the pics as promised, couldnt get an install shot but could get an aftermath shot.

Good job! You spent hours putting useless pieces of aluminum dryer tubing in your front bumper...

Ram air might give a few (read: 1-3) rwhp at high speeds. Claims of anything more than that seems outside of normal reason.

WTF is your problem? did I do something to offend you in the past? or am i the only one who realises how big of an ass you are bieng to me for no reason what so ever.

Ill just go ahead and ignore you from now on :)

idk, he gets on his period every once in a while, lol.

people idk if you actually watched the videos, but there is an obvious diffrence between the two. dont say its not this or its not that, because...you havent tried it, kayyyy...so far we are the only ones that have it in, and i noticed a diff in tq and times from 80-120, and if you watch the video of his, you can time it and see the diff. so, if you want to say it doesnt work, do it yourself. i dont care if it works or not for you, but i know it works for me. (15.4's when i dont have it down, and 15.3s when i do, btw...shes been running like crap, hence the 15s)

sooooo......do what you want, but everyone needs to lay off the other members, seriously. get along or get out. its not hard.

It takes around 20hp to feel a difference in the ass-dyno, seat of the pants feel. As such, I believe the stated gains from this are mostly psycological in nature. However since it's drawing in cool air it should help a little bit.

Well I dont exactly have a problem with you... Just the stuff that you do to your car. IMO, its kinda ricerish.

am i a ricer? or am i just poor and looking for alternitives that i created using my intelligence. The stuff he has done to his car he usuially talks to me about first...im not tryin to pick a fight here, but if you have a problem with what hes doing, which i dont see how you could have a problem with what HE is doing to HIS car, then you got a problem with me.

How the heck is it "ricerish?" Is it flashy and obnoxious like the typical ricer parts such as a giant spoiler or fart can exhaust? No.

Yeah, don't knock it until you try it.

And I happen to have the next modification that will sweep across this community, guaranteed to take .3 seconds off your quarter mile time:

^^very good mod, i did it last week and i actually got .4 off the 1/4^^

Get a job.

you know what guys... obviously Markviii93 knows everything and is jsut cool enough to start fights over teh internet. so we should all just obey his commands and refer to him as god from now on...

praise be!

I don't know but one of the LS guys did this too and said it was a great improvement.plus From nitrobasher's video, I think the air ram did really help.

YES! You should obey every single one of my commands! lol, dude chill out. Its the internet. Youre the one arguing and causing a ruckus. I just said "good job wasting your time putting dryer tubing in your front bumper". If you said something about my car right now. I wouldnt even make anything thing of it like you are. You need to learn to not care about what other people think or say. Especially on the internet...

*makes popcorn*

bring enough for everyone.

or not

Why do some people think being on the internet mean that civility needs to be disregarded? Just because you're not going to get punched in the nose doesn't mean you should act like a punk. Particularly on a message board with a community.

***<Wild applause in the background>***

OK, I think this intake thing is a good idea becuase it draws cold air instead of hot air so its getting colder air and you could make that bright silver duc work disapper with a can of black spray paint so those 2 things I just covered my question is though are you using insulated duc work or just tubing? I was thinking if it was isulated wouldent the fiber glass eventually fall apart then interfere with your filter or something, but if it was insulated wouldent the air keep cooler or does that even matter lol. I see It like this cutting out your mufflers, capping off and removing the air resonator, and this ram air mod there all free. Also everyone of these mods do something to benefit the vechile less back pressure, breathing easier for the car and also having colder air. And like I said the only down fall to this mod is to see the duc work some black spray paint and yeah have to look reall good to find it.
