Ok I'm looking for pros and cons. I'm running this Ram Air fan shroud on my buggy. I heard there crap and don't move the air to number 3 and 4 cylinder like you think it should. Thoughts [/img]

In an open air buggy they are just fine. If your oil cooler is over the intake, that probably needs moved if your gonna run in hot weather.

A doghouse shroud and cooler is the best setup if your buying a new setup. But looks like that one is painted nicely already.

Pros: looks cool...if your into that sort of thing...

Cons: doesn't work as well as stock. Note lack of internal stator vanes for directional control and minimization of turbulence...
