my dad has ve ss ute cat back exhaust tune and the ramjet made 239rwkw in and auto was a 39rwkw increase from factory
i also hav 1 on my vx ss wi already had cam and exhaust went in with 242rwkw cam out with 262rwkw
i wouldnt go aluminium as they right above the radiator which mill make the intake temps way hotter but end of the day its what u like and what u think looks better

Yeh I've been seeing a lot of secondhand ones of this brand for sale too....makes me think they aren't that great if people are getting rid of them all over the place.
Aluminium cops more heat soak from the bay/ radiator, in turn raising intake temps, but if you go plastic you have to make sure it is high quality as if it's cheap shit and it gets too hot it will collapse....which isn't ideal.

the ramjet ones are suppose to have good quality plastic ive read, they come in black or red, im thinkin goin red as i have the split style covers in red and the red looks real trick with red engine covers seen one one the ramjet web page on a gts,
vkiller there is a guy in the drivetrain for sale thread sellin a ramjet of his vx clubsport think its near new, he's chasin 500 for it, they retail for 650 i think
personally i think they look neat as they go with under the bonnet and dont tend to draw to much attention the ramjet has a more sleek factory appeal
