It's not truly ram-air either. No one makes a "RAM AIR" hood for our cars. You can have a hood with a functional air vent to the engine to makes cool down in there a little bit.

As for air intake, stick to the CAI intake kits by K&N, Fujita, ZZP, ect.

I have a ram air hood from rk sport. if you dont have a 2.2 or a 2.4 the ram air wont work. The duck is over the intake to the left of the motor bay. on the 2.0 the intake it to the right.

There's also the Suncoast Creations hood. It's a functional ram air hood and has heat extractors at the back, by the turbo. I heard it's got baffles to help avoid water ingestion too. For those that don't know about the company, they do some OEM stuff for GM.
