No, I all the banks stuff except the intercooler stuff, I did that
That RAM air deal was only like $80 or so, the pipes and boots were more!! Good thing ebay had the intercooler off a SD. I think your buddy TJBeggs runs the banks ram air intake too

the problem with the stocker x pipe is that it favors the right side (air flow is directed towards that side more) the ram air intake just splits the air evenly between the two sides

i've seen the pipe before, never your set-up though, i cant see it favoring the right side that bad, its pressurized air, its going to go to whichever intake valve opens. if you want to get really technical our whole intake is bad then since the x-pipe is right over the center 2 cylinders they get more air then the outer 2
