Thumbs up Install JL Stage II Ram Air kit

I installed the JL Stage II Ram Air Kit. It took me a few hours, but I took my time to try to get it right the first time. Fit and finish are excellent. I haven't had a chance to try it out because it's very cold outside and all I do is burn tires when I floor it. It's gotta help out a lot because I can hear the air being sucked in like crazy. I only have good things to say about the kit and would recommend it to anyone. I can post some pics of the install if anyone would like.

I have been considering the JL package and I would like to see the install pics. Do you have to cut or drill to install it?

The only cutting is on the plastic fender liner where the piping enters the fender. Approximately a 3" X 3" hole.

I cut a small hole in the fender for a cleaner install. Not very hard to do with a pair of tin snips. Just take your time so it looks nice and neat. My cut was a hair too big. The good thing is you can barely tell because it's not a real visible place. Here's some pics, sorry they're not that clear because it's kind of dark in my garage. I'll take some more later with the tire off outside, it's just too cold now.
