Well its a question qhich many people have idea's about, for example my car.
MRT Performance claim to mount the unifilter straight onto the throttle body, while rospen motorsport claim that you get no gain from doing that and its better to have a long intake runner to the front of the engine bay, so two places that specialise in my car have different ideas.
i had it mounted straight onto the throttle body and yup made a lot of induction noise, now i made up a long intake runner so its at the front of the engine bay now, induction noise is almost gone but i can't really tell if its better or worse, still does 0-100km/h in 8.5s which is the same as before,
anyone else out there done experiments on mounting their ram pod on the throttle body then extending the intake to the front of the engine bay? which did you find better or did you get the same results?
rice wise having it on the throttle body makes more noise but having it at the front of the engine bay looks nicer as it looks like you put some effort into it.
