Do you see any gains with a dual short ram intake like this?

Maybe if you're turbo'd and already making about 200hp, and even then it's probably just for show. But in terms of parts that are just for looks, that looks pretty cool.

I would have to say no. The amount of restriction that two air filter removes is more than countered by the increased weight of the second pod.



I'm guessing you have a pod already? Time your 0-60. Remove the pod altogether, and time another 0-60. I bet you a gentleman that there would be no difference in times.
