For the Free Ram Air mod, First Remove the air box cover and take out the air filter, you will now see only a small area where the air can enter the airbox. To increase the intake size on the air box remove the air box from the car by unscrewing several screws once out you will see how the bottom of the air box is blocked? You can cut that out leaving about a quarter inch all the way around. You now have a much larger air intake port. Now you will see the plastic radiator shroud blocking air entrance. You can also trim away some of that plastic radiator shroud as well to improve airflow to the bottom of the air box. You should only need to remove slightly less than an inch (just before the crease) I used a sheet metal cutter and it cut through just fine, otherwise put some cardboard in front of the radiator for protection. Below is a pic of what it should look like when your done

Next I decided to cut out the Air Baffles in the Lid that restrict Airflow, then i took out the stock baffle and made my own smooth baffle out of a plastic coupling and 2 new clamps. Cost of Mods thus far..$0 here are some pictures
