DasAutoVR6 0 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I have dozens of reviews and threads and still cant find a definitive answer on which one is best. To put it into perspective my vr6 is a weekend toy so spends most of its time on the country lanes and in villages, so no traffic. Which one will be best?? Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Seabrook 4 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Well personally I went for the Ramair the sound was amazing and relatively cheap but I think you will get an even number of votes for each one to be honest !!! prob both as good as each other !!

mike 6 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 iv had both, i sold my ram air for a bmc, to be honest was bit disapointed cus sounds nearly the same and does the same thing....just ram air being foam it soaks up alot of grease Link to post Share on other sites
spindat45 0 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Even though I have't had a BMC, I'd recommend the Ram Air. Cheaper and more smiles per mile. I had a small Ram Air on mine before I charged it and I loved the sound. The country lanes will take on a different meaning as will any tunnels you might happen to come acros. The odd villager might frown but such is life. The downside of them is that they suffer from heat soak from the enigine in the summer and when the engine is particuarly hot and as a result it may feel a bit sluggish in traffic. You can get heat shields for them to reduce the heat soak though. It will sound great and you'll find any excuse to go for a blast.Kevin Link to post Share on other sites

The huuuuge one? I made an interesting adaptation to mine. A sort of DIY cold air feed consisting of a CV Boot and and some air intake pipe. Worked a treat but I did have to clean the filter regularly by blowing it with an air line. it seemed to attract a lot of flies and other small insects Link to post Share on other sites

jonny_gti 0 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 bmc mate, might not sound as loud but wont soak up all the heat and will the cold air feed in a good plance you can really feel the difference Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 BMC every time.Ram air just makes noise and nothing else. The BMC actually liberates power, 7hp, on Stealth's dyno. Link to post Share on other sites
