3.4 Ram Air?

[screamingeagle94]

I was looking at Ram Air on A 5.7. While i was looking i was wondering if ram air would work on my car. Someone tell me if it is possible.

anything is possible with a few $$$. im sure it would be possible but weither it would be worth the extra money over a regular cool air intake for something that wont really yeild much of a gain on a 3.4 anyway, i dont know. maybe 3 hp over a cool air intake. wouldnt you need a hood as well? for the price of a few mods and a hood you could trade if for a v8.

although you have sparked an idea though. i wonder if an intake froma 98 or newer 3.8 would fit on a 3.4 since both the intakes are centered. you might have something with that thought. if anything i would persue the 3.8 intake and carve out the baffels for more airflow. not only would it give a decent gain, but would also not look cheesey.

im not sure though, anyone else have any ideas?

Yes, and is simple to do.

Yeah, it will fit, but you need to make a new bracket for it. You may also need an extension. I am currently making my own version cuz I am too cheap to go out and buy one. If you have the money, I say buy it.

As for the new style ram air (98+), you need the radiator support and all that hardware. Also, I am not sure if the radiator dimensions are different. You may need the 3.8 radiator too.
