Here is some info for the 90deg setup: - Use the 90deg elbow from Airflow Performance (has a butterfly built in for alternate air) - Can still use the standard 320 exhaust (Type IV, I think?) - I'm using the B&C 60A alternator with no modification - I have unfiltered ram air into the injector body and selectable filtered air from in front of cylinder #2 - I typically see around 1" MP increase when selecting ram I hope this helps you.
