Has anyone gone to a ram air system? It would seem to open up alot of space in the engine compartment. What has your experience been? Is it worth the investment?

When the engine is running the air on top of the engine is cold.
because the cooling fan is sucking all the air and blowing it onto the heads and cylinders.
