I have a 1999 atx and i am looking into getting a ram air and the cold air box i have a intake now but i think it is just a cheap one. my questions are if i get the injen one will the cold air box and the ram air kit work together or do ihave to get the wepon r intake. And where does the ram air kit run underneath do i have to put that battert in the trunk. I live in texas it does not rain much but when it rain it rain i live in san antonio and it got flooded over here so my question is uhh is there a awy to stop the water from getting into the enigne cause water not good lol.

I can help you with your questions...let's take them in order:

1. You CAN use the Weapon-R cold air box and ram air kit in conjunction with the Injen intake. (I am using this EXACT setup.) It requires that you modify the cold air box slightly by drilling four holes (for the four connecting bolts) in the side of the box so that you can bolt it IN BETWEEN the MAF and the MAF adapter plate, and one additional hole to allow the IAT sensor to pass through the backside of the cold air box.
2. The ram air intake scoop is best mounted in the lower driver's side grill opening (right next to the driver's side foglight assembly).
3. No you do not have to relocate the battery to the trunk.
4. The ram air kit includes a block-off plate which can be installed in the event of heavy rains so that you do not take water into your engine...you can also buy a bypass valve from AEM which prevents the engine from taking in water...it would mount somewhere in between the scoop and its connection to the filter...in the event the scoop becomes submerged in water, the valve takes air directly from the inner fender (which is where you would mount it) rather than from the scoop.
5. I believe the Injen intake is a superior part as compared to the Weapon-R...I did purchase the 2002 Dragon filter from Weapon-R to use in conjunction with the Injen intake so that the ram air kit bolts up directly to the filter rather than just having the ram air kit feed cold air into the cold air box.

I hope this answers all your questions...I'll include a pic of my engine bay to give you some idea of how it all goes together.

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
