I thought a ram air intake IS one that takes air from outside? Jackson racing makes a nice one for my Miata. It's a flat filter in a plastic box which has this very narrow in height but wide slot opening which mounts right at gap between the hood and the nose of the car. It supposedly gives increases of up to 14hp.

Eight's thinking of the term being tossed around called a Short Ram Air Intake. Popular with some of the Scion guys too. Instead of having an intake (take AEM for example) that has a bunch of twists and bends to get the filter as far from the engine heat as possiable (usually behind fog light area, that zone), a short ram air setup, is just a pipe directly off the TB, with a cone filter.. no heat shield (some have, some don't), plumbed right inside the hot engine bay. Now tests have shown that once the car is "moving" the air in the engine bay is much cooler (duh!), but when at idle, its just sucking up lots of hot air, which does nothing for performance. A true Ram Air intake does just that, "rams" (takes) air in from the outside, and duct's it directly into the intakes new box (look at Volant, Airraid, True Flow, etc. just to name a few) or somewhere inside the new intakes heat shield area. Some aftermarket hoods even have runners built into the mold, to connect the scoops or shakers on the hood, to feed the air right into the aftermarket air box! See Keystone, GoodHood, ProGlass, just to name a few. |

K&N posted a message requesting an 07 Yaris for performance intake development. I emailed them and they replied back, requesting my contact info to add to their database. They will need the car for 5 business days and may offer a rental if over 21. The owner would also get a free intake and the end of development. I'll let everyone know if they end up using my car. I don't know how long development would take though.

Yup! Good Job J5! They're not that far from me either! I wonder if that sport exhaust they list is a catback or just a muffler.

So how much do you think that you would gain in adding this and say the sport TRD exhaust?
