I was thinking about getting a ram air hood for my 2000 silverado, I was looking at this suncoast ram air hood and it said 10-20 % more hp and better mpg, is this even close to the truth?

 

nope, not even close to that much. that is definatly a marketing lie. dont be a sucker for that. you wont really see too much of a benefit from ram air, just minimal things. i have it. it seems i get about 1 mpg better in the city. also, SOTP when i first had it put on, I felt somewhat of a gain at high speeds. i dont feel it anymore though of course. its mainly for looks. i would think that you would have to be driving pretty fast to get anytime of air really rammed in there. i do believe it lets the vehicle breath a little bit better (more colder air coming in)

 

guess Ill just go with a cheaper one that doesnt claim all that BS

 

off topic I know but I thought you had a dodge as well? Sale it or trade it? btw I was in the corps as well 2nd Anglico Camp Lejeune Semper Fi

 

Semper Fi to you as well Marine. I was with 1/4 Marines for 4 years out in Pendleton. that hemi was my dads, i just drove it alot and influenced him on mods. that white silverado is my younger brothers. i liked this picture better so i put it on here.

 

PS eventually ill get a picture of all three, and add that to my signature instead
