So would you say it is worth buying? oh yeah by the way i dont know much bout engines **** but whats the avantages or cold air intakes, and short rams, and also the disavantages. thanks

short rams are usually only a 1/1.5 ft piping leading from the intake manifold to the filter element so it tends to suck in stagnant hot air around the engine. while it may give you more "flow" due to the size of the tubing and reduced restriction, in effect you are not gaining anything because the stock intake is actually a cold air box already.

my recommendation buy a CAI or a K&N replacement filter for your stock intake box. don't waste your money on a short ram.
