ram air

i took out the intake silencer and kept the ram air in. there is nothing connecting the air box with the ram air. how much difference, at this point, does the ram air make? i want to take it off.

But leaving it there helps keep the stock look in case anybody is looking.

last time i checked, the air under the ram air was really hot while driving. maybe taking it off would cool the whole engine bay all together. not only the fender.

I assume from your statement u are still feeding hot air into the inner guard.

IMHO one of the best mods is to seal off the intake/inner guard from the hot engine bay.
