I will also not alternate the cold ram stock set up. What I mean is I'm only adding the E-rams to the intake and not alternating where the intakes begin or end the air will not be restricted either when the blower is not on.
I don't want to get involved in another HP and dynos debate but I will tell you if its easy or not to install and if its a good upgrade to perform.
You can find all the info on their site for now or through my site:

How it works:
The e-Ram is an electrically powered forced air system that uses a 791 watt axial flow fan to slightly pressurize the intake air while it rids the inlet and filter box of most all restriction. It is designed to operate only at full throttle, since this is when you want the most air pressure available to your engine. By slightly pressurizing the air available to your engine intake system, the air becomes more dense, and is matched with more fuel producing the increased HP to the wheels.

Yeah... Could work, maybe 5 hp ?... I believe it's designed and built by a SCCA driver here in California who runs a red Porsche 944 that I spoke with about a year ago... Give it a try and let us know what you think !!!
