Cold Air Intake

Ok, I have seen this post before I know it, but I forgot what you guys said. If I get a CAI, then do I have to get rid of my Ram Air?
Thanks.

yes you do...

Actually it depends on how much work you wanna do. To just put a CAI in, then yes you'd have to lose the Ram Air.

On the other hand...

I've been tossing the idea around of creating a functional Ram Air, coupled with a CAI. I would extend the current RamAir intake all the way to the ducts on the front of the car, ditch the airbox, and have the "rammed" air ducted directly to the CAI. Just a concept, though.

Isn't that pretty close to dropping a cone filter into the box to make a warm-air intake?

I mean, the ram air already ducts all the cool air right into the cone filter. You figure that at 50mph, the cool air flowing in pushes most of the warm air away from the filterbox.

How much HP does a CAI add?? How does it vary? From cheapest - Most Expensive. Thanks
