Count me in as well.

The one I have looks exactly like the top picture in VCrossfan's reply but a little worst for wear. I plan on creating something simular. I am playing with the idea of giving it the ability to mount a forward looking IR camera and IR iluminator inside the scoop as I dont really see that it a functional scoop anyway.

I am interested.

I too am intrigued. Let us know how this progresses.

Ok, the one I have and the one I will make does have some functinality then. Not intake but cooling functionality. Either way it will be a scoop. It will be up to the user to cut the hold or not.

So does yours face front or back? I've read that front-facing is great for ramming air into the engine bay, problem is you really can't control everything else that gets in - leaves, bugs, dirt, etc. Rear-facing you don't necessarily have that issue, although I've heard that water can be a problem if your hood is tapered forward (like ours). Some might also say that rear-facing doesn't look as cool as front-facing.

what was it Billy Joel said...."i love you just the way you are"

[shinkson]

its forward facing. I dont know about any problems it may cause. I have only driven my 20 from the place that I bought it. Its in my shop with most of the supercharger off. Get ready to send the SC off for rebuilding.
