The SSRA is the best ram air kit on the market.

This is a brand new SSRA kit for LS1 based Camaros and Trans Ams. This kit picked up 13 RWHP on the dyno when a large utility fan was placed in front of the opening to simulate real world driving. This kit is the best on the market as it actually has a scoop to feed air into the engine. The other kits don't. The SSRA is made of plastic unlike the metal competitors. This means that it will not heat soak. The SSRA is made of very pliable Polypropolene plastic that will not crack.  Lastly, cars average about 1-2 miles better fuel economy with the cooler air coming into the engine. Kit includes SSRA, weatherstripping to seal unit, detailed instructions, and mounting hardware.

Other ram air kits have been known to cause the engine to hydrolock when hitting a puddle.

The inlet of the scoop on the SSRA is located in front of the airdam by about a foot. The other kits use the airdam to help direct air into their kits. Basically this is an extension for their "ram air kit". This can act like a big shovel to push water up into their ram air kits. On my car which is lowerd about an inch, the bottom of the SSRA scoop is 6 inches off the ground, while the airdam is 4 inches off the ground. This makes these kits very risky for engine failure due to hydrolock.

More power from the SSRA.

A friend of mine has the competitors ram air kit(he bought it before I invented mine). I  wanted to do a test between  my SSRA kit and his ram air kit. I felt that the air inlet temperature would be lower with the SSRA than his ram air kit. We ran both kits on his car. Using EFIlive, the SSRA inlet air temps were about 10 degrees cooler on average. Cooler air is more dense in oxygen which gives you more power. The reason that the SSRA has cooler inlet air temps is it's superior design. The SSRA's scoop is taking in air from right under the front bumper, about a foot away from the radiator. The other kits lay flush with the radiator. The inlet soure for the their air ducting is right above the radiator. The average radiator temps are between 180-200 degrees on the F-bodies. I designed the SSRA to angle away from the radiator when it's installed. The other ram air kits lay flush against it. By having the SSRA angle away from the radiator, air can pass through it. When the other ram air kits lay flush against the radiator, you effectively are blocking the radiator. This makes your car run hotter. Hotter cars make less horsepower. Once again, using EFIlive we could see the operating temperature difference between a car using the SSRA or one of  the other ram air kits. A car using the SSRA can expect their car to run about 15 degrees cooler. This is especially true in such places as the desert southwest where many people can't use the other ram air kits because it will make their car overheat.

One of my leading competitors likes to say that I copied his kit.

I bought my 2002 Camaro SS in September 2001. I was very poor at the time and looking at doing anything that I could to make it faster. I didn't even own a computer at the time. I knew no one else who owned a LS1 F-body. At the library I Googled "Camaro" and found the site ls1.com. Someone on that website was talking about cutting out the bottom of the filter tray(Free Ram Air mod) to allow air to come up from underneath. I did this but I felt that if you could scoop air into the bottom it would be better. From going to Home Depot I came up with a prototype for my kit. I eventually met someone at the dragstrip who had a ram air kit that he had bought from a vendor that advertised on LS1.com. I was amazed to find that they were similar. The big difference was that my kit was a continuous unit that actually scooped up air. Also, my kit did not lay flat against the radiator. This isn't rocket science to design these. People make up their own kits all the time. Products evolve. Look at cars, they are much better than they were 10 years ago. If you want a kit that is very nicely designed and works great, the SSRA is for you.

The SSRA is made in America, my leading competitors is made in Canada.
