REFLECTOR: ram air

[Donald Royer]

The  older Mooneys had a valve that you could open to provide ram air. You could barely see the MP gauge flicker when you opened it. About 1/4 of an inch. They eventually gave it up as not worth the effort, and the newer Mooneys do not have it.

To any of you engine guys out there, how much of a performance boost will I get from a normally aspirated, fuel injected Lycoming if I provide ram air for the intake?
