Yeah, they work. But I would stick with a cold air intake.

I don't think they where ever "designed" for performance either, just to give you the "intercooler look". Short rams are good. The difference between a short ram and a CAI is minimal if any. No risk of Hydrolocking either.
Good Luck with the car



Oh and I can assure you, people will make fun of it, if you do get one!!!! But it is your car............
