Absolutely. Especially if you go from a very bad set-up to a really
good one.

increased tendency for Carb icing using RAM AIR?>>
No, I have never had carb ice in a Lyc. O-360. Still, I have carb
heat available and have a carb temp probe.
I flew for 500 hours on a non-ram air system before switching to a ram
air system in 2000. I now have 350 hours on the ram system -best
upgrade I ever made. The attached article and performance chart was
published in the LNN a number of years ago.
