Has anyone ever tried a dual style air intake such as the one on ebay. see the link below, if it doesn't work do a search on there and you'll see it. just wondering if it was any good, i gotta get my r/t breathing.

That set up is made for people with the true ram air hoods with dual scoops. If you don't have scoops to let in fresh cold air, then they will just suck in hot air trapped above the manifold. If you have the stock hood, go with the FIPK stype intake. It places the filter in a naturally cool area of the engine. Also pulling out that rubber panel next to the radiator and AC lines helps to feed the filter cold air.

I personally think the K&N kit is over priced. I have a 360 intake and it is pimp, also half the cost. Noticed a fairly good gain from it once the computer figured out it was there.

i don't think that set up is for a ram air hood. ram air set ups have are sealed. the hood seals to the air inlet. i don't know about that particular intake but, it should be o.k. if need be just extend it forward or out farther. just my two cents.

I think it looks great, but don't know if it'll compete with the K&N. My experience is based personally w/ the K&N. KRC says it's worth 12-15 at the wheels.
