Thanks for all the help about the hood scoop last time I asked. Just one more question. How do you keep water from coming in the scoop? That's the only problem I could think of with making my own scoop (I'm pretty sure that's what I will do). Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

I kinda let it in and that is bad.. You know drivng down the highway sucking in water... bad combonation. I am going to make a fiberglass piece that fits in the whole and blocks it.. that will bolt in

I think the mustang has more fake scoops than any other car.

NO have a functioncal scoop, but you have to put something in their when it rains because it goes right down the Carb.

I want the hood scoop functional. But I still need it operational during wet driving, this car is my daily driver. Yah, I have to go with Silver Ninety Three and agree that the Mustang DOES have the most fake scoops of any car.

the turbo 2's have a long "shelf" with drain holes so water cant go directly into the engine compartment

Yeah a T2 scoop would work good if you can rig the piping to feed the airbox.It has the drain holes and looks good.Just like this blue FB!!!
