Ram Air was:[Shotimes] silencer cone

[Ian Fisher]

I don't disagree. I just wanted a little more flow and
something a "tad" louder. I really like the stock
sound but it's very difficult to hear. I think it's
easier to drive stick with a car that you can hear.
Matching revs  to downshift is much easier now that I
can hear the exhaust note. I am really happy with how
it sounds now.

>From what I understand, the paper motorcraft filter
flows pretty well. It doesn't suprise me that you
found no gain with the K&N. I'm seriously considering
getting rid of my Pro-M 80/cone filter in favor of a
75 mounted to the stock airbox. I don't want to
reinstall my stock catback but I couldn't if I wanted
to. Although the pipes held up fine, the welds and
flanges were breaking and it was chopped up long ago
(save the bent mid section for the rod shifter)
