If you have a spare, we can use it as a template for racer guys.

I did this with a friend who also owns a Z. Neither of us noticed much of a difference. However, in all fairness I have not had a chance to really put it to the test. We also cut a window out of the rear of the unit to allow brake cooling (when needed) and installed an easy to remove aluminum plate with a couple of expandable pins to hold it in place. There should be some photos of this posted soon. We both liked the idea of being able to easily remove the end piece when tracking the car. This can be done without removing the wheel. One simply needs to jack up the car and the wheel turned to the right, thereby exposing the end plate so one can easily pop out the pins.
Use HP Tuners to see the increase in boost.

Ram air works at speed, and usually you will have additional boost 80+ mph. You will be able to tell a big difference.
The IATs will be ambient most of the time with the system, which allows retention of timing.

Dyno
We should have some dyno numbers shortly from Vengeance Racing.
Hoping that they have a 130 mph fan to direct at the duct inlet.
I estimate much bigger numbers than our Stinger-RZ without the TRIC.

Someone please take this thing to Atco or Cecil this fall and run a 9 with no other mods so I can finally pull the trigger. 
Best,

Fan type?
Use one of these to duplicate 155 mph and you should see +2.7 PSI boost

Seems silly, but to really duplicate the boost we saw at 88 mph and 124 mph, the dyno would necessarily need more than a giant cooling fan designed only to cool the radiator.

Maybe its just me but I cannot detect a difference (in feel) over the CAI alone. Any feedback?
