The more the better.
I hated the fit on my '02 Trans Am. It sat nicely on the radiator, but only one of the two braces fit in the factory holes. The plastic between the filters and MAF didn't fit at all and was constantly open. Nowhere in the installation docs did it say I had to drill into my car and go buy ducting. The filters obstructed the hood, too. I had spots that were slightly flattened from the hood closing on them. It seemed like they tested it on the Camaro and then assumed it would be fine on a Firebird / Trans Am. I imagine their new designs are better though.
