I’d keep the bonnet smooth and do a VCM style OTR with an outlet on each end runing to each airbox. You’ve spent so much time and effort in keeping the car looking stock, I think it’d ruin it by putting some kind of scoop on it
Like this
March 1, 2017 at 8:57 am #21891What about just simple vents in top of the bonnet where the air box sections are. Not a raised scoop.
Yeah thats was what I was thinking too.

February 28, 2017 at 9:12 am #21878You drove past me on chapel street on the weekend. Thing looks and sounds amazing
February 23, 2017 at 12:11 pm #21796Ah yes now it makes sense great images in my eyes.. Hardest bit will be trying to make it look decent I suppose. Will you retain the bonnet liner just cut it?
Great thinking should keep the temps into the intake down. If it works well enough might even be able to touch up the tune and get more out of it. Does it get very hot in the bay now?

January 27, 2017 at 9:22 am #21570This car is so good on so many levels. I cant believe they still pop up in this condition. Didnt ever consider the ls swap?
January 27, 2017 at 9:16 am #21566If it helps any I got these guys to quote a 3d scan on a inter-cooler plate that sits under a supercharger they quoted $412. But gives you an idea of that part price wise.
I dont know the cost of having it cnc they dont do it
