A true RAM air is around the same principle as forced-induction. So if you are referring to your CAI HAI or whatever it is that you have as RAM, then you have no idea what RAM really is. Just because your filter is sitting behind your bumper, skyline or not, doesn't mean that air is being forced into the intake manifold. It takes more than that to "force" air thru straight aways and bends of an intake pipe, thru the intake resonator, thru the TB, and thru the intake manifold.

Well i have a skyline front bumper and there is a big hole in it(because of the style of the bumper) where my PR Cai sits.....i would say that my intake is getting lots of fresh air! If u do not know what the skyline front bumper looks like then u have no idea what im talking about so disregard if this is you. But to anyone who does know what im saying.....well im jus throughing my .2 out about some cai intakes getting fresh air

ha, dude, you're hilarious. you're reminding me of all the students in school that crapped their pants and laughed about it. oh yeah, those were the special ed students who had teachers clean up after them. You're a 28 year old incompetent waste of space. Jeff is 37, so he has more knowledge than you based on your idiotic theory. The only you've stated to be a true fact is...nothing. Maximas dont have Ram Air, and like everyone has said, we wouldnt be getting the effects of it anyways. And like i said, if you can fart and get my car to a 14.8, ill fly you to wisconsin. Since thats the only logical answer to me lowering my consistent times. Genius
