does anyone make smooth ram air ducts without the chambers in them? or would i have to make my own?

+1, a dremel and some electrical tape to cover the hole.

Just out of curiosity, why?

the only reason they are there is to reduce noise. i like to be loud :) the top chamber is already off with tape over it from the previous owner, im talking about the big bottom one, maybe i can buy a spare set and experiment with fiberglass and make a smooth one.

Are you talking about the triangular resonance chambers?

Mine just popped right off (no cutting necessary), plugged the holes with a rubber wine cork.


edit:
bottom ones huh? I always thought they kept rainwater from getting into your filter.

sick... on my old f4i... previous owner also removed the resonators that come off the bottom front...

to op check ur hardware store you may be able to find plastic plugs for the resonators coming off the top

Read Post #5 in the link... I done my reading on this mod a long time ago, it does in fact get a richer fuel mixture.

Hmmm..I yanked off my upper resonators a long time ago and just electrical sealed them off...never even knew there were lower resonators/water traps...prolly bc they are so far back on the tubes/intakes...Id just leave em...I mean really, your not gaining anything here...the amount of air that those "dipp/lower resonators" take has to be obselete:icon_shrug:
