RE: Dual inlet air intakes.

For the price of a Dual eRam setup, yeah...I agree, they're a little bit
costly for the .36 increase in the 1/4 mile (and an extra 1.65mph) but
they're not really considered a "Supercharger" but rather a form of
functional "Ram-Air". They only produce 1psi on my Autometer gauge (at WOT)
which isn't that big of a HP increase, but every bit helps.

Yeah it'll fit the 3.9 becuase thats jsut a gimpy 5.2 (or 5.9) no problems
there, dual ERams, hehehe I still don't think they'd work worth a hoot,
theres jsut not enought pressure to overcome manifold vacume!
