We are having issues with our website at the moment trying to add the intake kit to it so bare with us.

Thanks for your patience.
I called and talked to Layton, he was very helpful and knowledgeable. He explained the details of the intake, it can be installed with no tune.

I was also very excited to hear that he is working on a ram air setup that uses air from the brake inlet in the grill, I may hold off and wait for that!

The Ram air option will be able to be added to the basic system...

He said it could be added to any existing air intake stock or whichever.

That's so badass! I'm really really interested in the ram air setup, I would probably try adding it to my stock airbox with green filter.

The ram air idea is a good one....been doing that with my afe since I installed it. I have a z06 grill and I feed air in from behind the brake duct straight up to the airbox.
With a standard c7 grill you can do the same thing just got to take off the block off plates on the grill

Thanks for the interest and hoped Layton answered all your questions.

I would recommend you trying the intake and enjoy the added performance to your Corvette as the RAM system is still in the development stages and when available will be just an add on feature to the existing kit.

Again thanks for your interest.
