JohnA Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 If you want it to be functional, it is actually quite involved to fit. You'd also need the bits coming from the cyl head and mate with the scoop output as the bonnet shuts. If you just cut a hole and stick it then it will be dysfunctional --> sending high pressure air where normally low pressure should be, making underbonnet air circulation worse.

peter richards Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 ok , i understand the point of the air flow problem if its just cosmetic you want , , and in my case thats all i wanted . so once the scoop is assembled, instead of cutting one huge hole , and have airflowproblems , what i did was to cut four small rectangular slots , so the scoop drops in , takes a bit of patience . job done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
