Never had any experience with it, but there's a pic of it installed on Memory's site: http://www.memoryfab.com/detail/?id=307

It's a short ram intake with a box around it to try & keep hot air out. I'd imagine that it doesn't work very well since the pipe is still prone to heat soak, and the box doesn't appear to isolate the filter enough to even completely stop the hot air from being sucked in anyway.

Would be okay once you took out the headlight i suppose, but it wouldn't creat a ram air effect or anything
