Default new mods

I havent seen anybody on here with it but i built a ram air with some flex piping. the filters are located in each of the places where fog lights go. Also ive came across a great deal because my friend works at a shop and can get my heads bored out and all new everything for 375. i was wandering how much hp and tq that it might give me.

Are you exposing the filters to the blast of water, dirt and debris that the front bumper experiences every time you drive?

And what does "boring out heads" mean? All new everything?

What?

Not trying to be snarky, but asking these poorly worded, obtuse questions doesn't really get you anywhere.

I'm not really sure what gains you'll see as I don't know of anyone that's done it and has dyno numbers or time sheets for before and after.

The best thing I could suggest in this situation is to get the heads from airram and get the scoop as well. No need to run extra tubing to your bumper and tear up a filter, not to mention there is no kind of warranty nor any precise degree of consistency on that head job. Better safe than sorry I say, because sorry leaves you with a 5000lb rolling dead weight.
