[QUOTE="Torch10th, post: 4417780, member: 15703"] You realize "ram air" is a fallacy right? Consider that your engine is an air pump. One that pumps roughly 2.3 litres of air each revolution. at 6800 rpm with an assumed volumetric efficiency of 90% that's roughly 14,000 litres of air per minute. You honestly think that traveling 100 miles per hour is going to "ram" "air" in to the intake system? Especially given the inlet size of the shaker scoop, that's simply not happening. in the upper RPM's at WOT your engine is still sucking air, it's not being anywhere near force fed with that shaker system. The only place it may haev an effect is cruising speeds on the highway when you're in 5th gear at lower RPM's. Even then I certainly doubt it. The shaker is for show only. [/QUOTE]
