2009 Ram air or Cold air intake???

i did everything he did including the box in the fender well and it didnt take me 1.5 hours. So i imagine he did?

Yours goes all the way down to where that box is since it's a CAI, so for you there isn't a way to avoid taking it out, rabbit. His is an SRI. I was just wondering if he went through the trouble of taking it out...

Since I installed the air intake in the winter (snow) I didn’t have the chance to pull the resonator box out. I will be doing that this summer, as soon as I have the time. I plan to run a air flow tube up from the wheel well to the breather with the extra tubing I still have.

I guess that will turn it into a semi-CAI... with the majority of the air still being taken from the engine bay... But you'll add a little bit of cold air from the fender area.

Thats a very nice setup......sorry but does that do anything as far as performance that is noticeable?

the sri does improve flow, its better than stock, but if you ever stop and sit idle, heat soak is a bigger problem and can actually rob power. The solution to that is to add the second pipe and have a cai. All the gains, a LOT less heat soak. Just be sure to pair it up with a less restrictive muffler to give the engine the most flow in and out.
