But that sounds not nearly as good as the 276s trying to ingest that
airfilter hehe. Taking the car out for a spin today. First time in a
little over a month. Hope the old girl starts.

But hey... The growl sounds cool! drilling quarter sized holes in the
box makes a cooler sound than cutting the bottom out.. heh.. notice i
didn't say anything about performance..=20

though on a side note, when i did that. I didn't notice any differance.
you probably can't feel 1 or 2hp, but will probably make a differance
when your racing at a track or something.

It does work great under certain circumstances. As I mention in the
write up this something your really only going to feel when its nice and
cold/dense outside. Hey its like 4 bucks, what have you got to loose.
When I switched to the pipercross airbox I took the ram air out since it
made difference when it wasnt funneling the air directly into the
airbox. =20

The ram air effect is fairly insignificant. What is critically important
is that you pull cold air into the motor. That's really where you get
your gains. The set up that you just posted the link for would work
great in this respect.

What about a ram-air ductwork setup?

I've been eyeing this for a while, but I'm not going to try anything
until I get the 2.0 in...

Yes, letting hot nasty engine bay air into your motor will help reduce
harmful horsepower. In fact, you lose about one hp for ever 10deg
increase in air temperature. Go for it!

Does drilling out the bottom of the air box really do anything
performance wise or is that bs?
