Frogzskin has all kinds of sizes and shapes. A number of companies sell panel vents like Moflow, etc. The ones I have in the front of both of my side panels I got at SpeedWerx. I also have a number of Frogzskin ones.
Those look good TF. Do they sell them in blue?

No. Unfortunately, my season is over with for the year. :-(
I figured why not try it knowing that there are good venting options available. If I don’t like it, I can always just remove it. Looks like one piece of the air box would have to be replaced, but that’s no big deal.
TD has 10% off along with the exchange rate being kind to us in the US so the price wasn’t too bad.

I have the Gap ram air as well as the MoFlow full vent kit on my Winder. The only place I didn't put the MoFlow vents was on the lower side panel on the clutch side as I have the BOP belt guard on that side and didn't feel it would flow any air to the clutches.
I rode the sled a bit with the Gap Ram Air but hard to tell if it helped or not because the sled is already Crazy fast.
I did win the King of The Trail class in our local snow drags with it installed so it didn't hurt!

I think it would be more of a ram air if the stock hole in the top of the airbox was blocked off.

I agree..IMO..its only good for a good supply of cool outside air unless the stock airbox opening was plugged up.

Are you getting a higher boost reading?

I never data logged it since I installed it but it was slightly overrevving when I was racing it with my no other changes. I honestly would be surprised if it made more boost.

IMHO boost is controlled by ECU via waste gate control with feedback/input to ECU from a few other sensors. How would putting this gizmo on cause more boost? Maybe I just don't get it? To me, it's like putting magnets on your fuel line in your car increases your mileage?

I agree..its only good for feeding cool air to the airbox...IMO
I think comparing before and after AFR may be more indicative to whats going on.
