Are you sure? I have seen alot of how to's on making the SRT scoop functional[sm=smiley24.gif]

 

At least to me it seemed functional maybe it wasnt but it looked that way to me .

 

They are all functional... They bring cool air caught in the scoop and direct it toward the turbo and manifold. The how-to you probably saw was to cut out a circular whole about the airbox and seal it with weather stripping to direct air also into the box.

Yes that would be the one I saw, didn't know they where functional right out the box. I stand corrected.

 

I thought so since I knew my acrs worked really well.

 

I'm still trying to understand why you downgraded.

[&:]

 

I had my sxt before I had my acr my sxt is a 04 and my acr was a 05 reason why I downgraded cause my husband made me sell her cause I was puttin to much money into her plus the insurance on a acr is way to much a month. I didnt downgrade since I had the 04 sxt before I had the acr. Plus Im more into autos than im into 5 speeds .

 

you should've sold the sxt4. haha.

 

the 'functional hoodscoup mod' for the SRT4 goes beoynd its current function. it comes mainly out of the holes blowing over the pack/wires and the other over the turbo. the front holes also flow air over the radiator area. howver, you can cut a hole in the green area over the airbox, buildup a rubber seal about an inch or so (gotta measure and tweak, measure and tweak) above the airbox, cutting a hole in the airbox as well and afixing the rubber seal to the top of the airbox. this allows for the airbox to gain airflow from the hoodscoup, hence the 'mod'. i believe this was origionally considered in design, hence why there is a 'pocket' over the stock airbox, but was not added to the produciton of the vehicle.




so is the hood scoup functional stock? yes
can you modify to increase its funcionality? yes again

 

Never going to sell her shes my show ride and I just got her back with a whole new freshly painted front end and new alternator and new air condtioner. New black housings better than the ones I had before the accident and new black housing sidemakers. Only srt4I would love to have when it ever comes out is the caliber srt4.
