by "big ram air thingys" I assume you are talking about the pods on the side.
If so, no. They don't feed into the airbox at all. They are cowls to force the air across the parallel mounted radiators for increased cooling.

The ram air duct is center mounted behind the fork. It's not a straight shot into the airbox however, so probably not too helpful.

I removed the inner airbox cover, didn't make a difference in power, but it sounds way cooler now!

2 radiators, one on each side
Yes it runs hot. 90 deg day, it's 215 + stop and go.
90 deg day, 190ish on the highway
