running a short ram air doesn't help mileage and power, at least in my experience. while moving i see air intake temps of 50 celcius, when not moving i see intake air temperatures of 75 celcius and rising. my mileage went down after installing the ram air as well. personally i would stick with stock or go all out and do a CAI so far i really havent been impressed with the ram air (any of them, ive owned two). oh and as far as a gain in power, i only feel gains when im travelling at high speeds and cold air is rushing in through the grill...any other time i actually feel a loss in power especially low end. i didnt notice it as much in the winter but in the summer it has really become apparent...
