Default Ram air help

I have a 95 formula with a ram air hood and I was wondering if it was possible to install the ram box without doing some major modification with tubing to the box itself. I heard that the ram air was meant for 96 or 97 and later and I was curious if it was going to be able to work for my 95 formula. Thank you.

the '95 firehawk's had ram air... i don't know about the under hood design though... there might already a screw hole /tie down point on the radiator cover for the air box. just make sure their is a good seal between the airbox and the rubber gasket thing on the under side of the hood

Everything will bolt down in the same place from '93 through '97.

Everything that's on the '96 and '97 cars will work on earlier 4th gen cars.

that's true for 94-97 but the 93 doesn't have a MAF so it needs a different tube to connect to the tb.

as for a 95, its a direct swap. here's the oem ram air box/bellow on my 95. to attatch the airbox to the radiator cover, you unbolt the middle bolt on the radiator cover, instal the lower airbox portion, put the bolt back in, and then install the filter/upper airbox.
