vdrumright Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 I been thinking about making a ram air system for my SS for a while. Last night I went and bought the supplies. Today I installed it. The reason I say " a new way" is that I did mine with 3" PVC pipe and connect it to both brake ducts. Here are some pictures and I wil talk abou how I did it later. ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deezel Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 Nice, clean install, Vince. I was wondering about black paint until the last pic came in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawk Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 What a great idea! You did I good job on that install as well. Just one question, do you think it was necessary to do a dual ram air, wouldn’t just the passenger side be efficient enough? Either way, I like it… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokedrvrbjw Posted March 27, 2004 Report Share Posted March 27, 2004 Do you still have the stock air filter?? Where did you go up...passenger side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vdrumright Posted March 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 Do you still have the stock air filter?? Where did you go up...passenger side? Using A K&N Filter. I connected it thru the bottom of the factory air box on the pasenger side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adams2003 Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 Cool looking setup. Any noticable power gains? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 Cool looking setup, Vince. Now that you've started messing with the engine, what's next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdss Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 I bet that would mount right up to the Volant CAI box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 I bet that would mount right up to the Volant CAI box. It would. I have something similar, except only on one side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdss Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 Ben, do you mind taking some snaps of your set up? I am considering doing this also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted March 28, 2004 Report Share Posted March 28, 2004 Ben, do you mind taking some snaps of your set up? I am considering doing this also. Vince already has the pieces of my setup. If you take what he has for the pass side vent, then a flex dryer tube to the Volant (like he used), then a big clamp to attache to the Volant drop tube, you'd have it. Took about 30min.
