Does ram air improve performance?
There is almost a 5-percent boost in engine airflow into a forward-facing air scoop from ram air in clean air at 200 mph. Less engine volumetric efficiency at the high end reduces the fuel need. More air from ‘ram air’ at high speed increases the fuel need. The combination can present a challenging tuning problem.
