I did the math on a post a while back to show of how much power could be gained on the E9X by recuperating 100% of the RAM effect and to demonstrate that it is completely negligible at public road speeds.

Further, what made those scoops completely ridiculous on the E9X is the fact that the intake box was vented on the hood thus negating any gains from the RAM effect.

EDIT: Found my old post
