dyno chart: stock airbox versus swiss cheesed, etc...

[vwrocco87@hotmail.com (Brad Sayer)]

When setting up a true "ram air" setup, wouldn't ramming the air into the 
box cause the plate to rise up and down unexpectedly, screwing with your 
mixture, etc.?

Fresh air is one thing, but ramming air I would think would makes things 
screwy.  But, then, what do I know...
