I installed just the filter on my Shelby and a Ram-Air system. It really
works great. I made a couple of runs with the K&N and without the K&N. I
figured it would work better with no K&N, but I was wrong. They say some
vehicles work better with an airfilter than without and obviously mine is
one of them.
