The scoop sticks out underneath the car or it might fit in the fog light opening. You will not see a gain on a dyno with them as you need to make air. You will see gains above 70 mph. They do work, but can be a problem in the rain. I have heard of 2- 3 mph gains in the 1/4. Higher powered cars will benefit more I would suspect as they go faster.

If you were looking at getting that ram air you should go to your local harware store and make it yourself for 15 bucks, That thing is such a waste of money.

This kit actually fits behind your honeycomb or grill delete, I believe.

If that is the case, that is a good idea. You probably can stick it anywhere.

Wow, I didnt know that. In the old magazine ads, it showed it mounted to the front bumper(where a chin spoiler would go or behind a headlight possibly)
