that scoop look awful with it offset like that....not to mention, how do you plan on keeping water out of there???
once water, dirt, snow, or whatever else goes into that scoop, its no going to be much longer until that motor is junk...hell, even the sun beating down on that timing belt is gonna make it dry rot fairly quick.....

i personally wouldnt leave the car outside or drive it with that scoop on it and no timing belt cover...but thats just me[&:]

not really a fan of it, but i put a suby hood scoop on my car, but it is centered and i like it, helps keep my turbo cooler, but like spud said, i would be worried about ur timing belt showing if i were u... with sun and rain... could be bad....

you need sumthing in there...otherwise its only a matter of time until your throwing another motor in there...

i would watch out for kids too....back in the day if i walked by that car i would have shoved a stick down there in the timing belt
