think about it logically...

short rams are higher up in the engine bay therefore suck in hotter air whereas cold air intakes have the filter sit low in the corner of the bumper and draw cooler air. if u get cold air, depending where u live, u may want to consider the water bypass valve.

i believe i read somewhere on here a long time ago short rams produce more torque. not sure tho...don't quote me
