First of all, just to clarify, all a ram air kit does is permit cooler outside air, which does increase power potential. It does not "ram" the air in. That also is not possible. The speed at which the vehicle would have to be travelling would create a tremendous vacuum at the TB, and there's no way the "rammed" air would surpass that. You may not have been implying that, but I wanted to be clear.

As for this bottle of air idea, no way. It will never create boost unless it does the things I've already outlined.

PLEASE be my guest, and give it a shot! I would LOVE to be proven wrong on this one, but it aint gonna happen.

Take care,
~Chris
