I'll be making one soon. Padodgeram is hooking me up with an air hat. I plan on doing a cheap DIY but different then these. I just need the hat so I know what size parts I need to pick up

Did someone say fresh air?

This is the inside portion of my scoop project

Heres the heart of the concept. The tray.

Obviously not completly put together, but you get the idea. The foam seals it to the hood when its closed.

not quite. Thats a photoshop (the outside.) of the paint on the scoop, its just in primer now, and im waiting for a holesaw to free up (to helpstart the hole in the hood)before I finish mounting it. Im hoping for a decent gain. I figgure the intake temps will drop by about 20 degrees, hopefully more. Last night it was 45 degrees out and it was an absolutely noticable diffrence from the 70 degree weather weve had; so if thats any indication as to the diffrence Ill notice when its finally opened up, it should be a good show. (I want 14s when I go to the track on the 28th.)

Hey,
Where did you get that air hat from? I have a K&N but it is just about to high for my intake.

Indy,

What do you filter the air with? Is there a filter that fits up in the scoop? The foam is just to keep hot engine air out right?


Also just a curiosity question:Is there such a thing as too much air, or will the PCM figure it out and correct the mixture?
