Ram air induction on a 2.7
Has anybody ever done the ram air induction on a 2.7. I have done it on my SFA the same as Kaaspas. I have a mate that want to do it on his 2.7 any ideas out there.

Thys did it on Kaspaas. There is a thread on it somewhere.
Cut a hole in the firewall, which allows air to travel threw the hole via the the vents below your windscreen.

Mine is not so much ram air as cold air. Works like a charm.

Re: Ram air induction on a 2.7
Mine also works like a charm, going up a certain hill I used to get just over a 100km/h and after I did it I go up there at 120km/h. So there is definitely a big difference. On the 2.7 the space is small and the ABS is in the way, so I was wondering if anyone has done it. Otherwise I might have to go through the wheel arch and then back in to bypass the ABS with a 70 mm flex hose.
