The only one I kow of that is truely functional is the "shaker" style hood. The cervini's dual ram brinf in some fresh air to the engine compartment but also a lot of dust and dirt

The toughest part about making a ram air hood functional is getting it high enough to actually work as a ram air. It needs to be just above roof level in our trucks, otherwise the air just flows right over the top of it.

i disagree... i bet they do CLAIM more hp

[Tex Arcana]

THey can claim it based on the fact they're inducting fresh air, but ram air is a bit of a misnomer and doesn't really work as advertised.

Hey, I may come off as a know-it-all online (alot like many of us), but in truth I just want to *be* right--if I"m wrong, I expect people to correct me and tell me WHY I'm wrong. *IF* I believe their assertions, and their proofs, then I'll change my mind (and it's lots easier than it sounds).

Ask ANYONE who's met me in person, I'm actually a hella lot humbler in person, and I just want to know the truth.

Capece? :tu:

Not to worry Tex...I really was just telling you I agreed with you in a non-metrosexual way,(read...I am not a sensitive girly guy and I say stuff as crudely as possible so as not to give the impression I could plug in either way)...
