i my self am doing what clokker did and i'm doing this as soon as i get my godspeed radiator since i'm adding an e'fan aluminum radiator 'AAi' all at once and maybe even a new oil cooler and oil lines while i'm at it.
more pics just to show how much area you got for clokker's way.
and i moved that metal block off plate covering some relays just for no reason lol

Yeah, I think it's in section 42, area 51 of the owner's manual...

Actually, the 2000 Pontiac GTP Ram Air, while QUICK isn't overtly fast, and since the ram-air induction - much like this case - in actually forcing more air, as it should be, any engine will lean out if the TPS and MAF are talking to the ECU accordingly, only so much metered air will be registered, at any given point.
While I always like a great equation, other particulars should be taken into account, for said variables: Diameter:Flowrate (psi) from point 'x' to 'y' on the throttle, no RA effect, on the MAF (we'll say not moving, on a dyno) in comparison to the same control parameters on the highway...
NTM a direct scoop installed, instead of 5' of erroneous piping to slow down/ inhibit the air flow to the intake.
On the highway, you can DEFINITELY feel when it's leaning out (also illustrated on ****-retentive datalogging), where the standard power lacks, vs. where the RA induction overshoots the mark of the MAF's metering parameters.
I think as long as the appropriate flowrate is available, going back to the topic, at hand, your MAF won't dip, too heavily; though it will show leaning out at a progressive rate, under acceleration.
Secondarily, we weren't talking about an increase in power, but an increase in air-flow. Proven by his need to now bump the AFR, to rich, via the Emanage. If this weren't having any effect upon his AFR, he wouldn't now need to adjust it.

Except you assumed that before I clarified that you were wrong, did you?
Ergo, your assumption only made it obvious that your reading didn't transfer the fact that it was sarcasm. The fact that you had to process that any further than your own ignorance, shows that's your dilemma, not the delivery.
Kinda of like speaking laterally to a person that's special-needs (as indicated by the fact that I had to clarify for your dumb *** that it was sarcasm and a joke): you can't obviously make an analogy if the person doesn't get it.
Now. If you're done projecting your social inadequacies upon the rest of us, I think Elmo's on PBS.
Back to the topic, at hand, since the kids have been dismissed back to Sesame Street, I think the idea is a good one, though depending on where Alex's design takes him, the end result will be nice, crispy, cooler air, like Clokker's....

Here is an example of a race-winning NA engine intake:

You should know by now that teh nternet and teh **** retentive dyno trump education and industrial experience.
