yes you could do that... that also alows fundings but i agree with... wanksta, that scoop is desined to alow flow to TMIC now why couldn't it provide flow to a TM AIR INTAKE... granted i may or may not provide cooler air .... The pics of that TM Air Intake were amazing and if someone made it i would buy that in a heart beat.

i didnt read all that annoying BS



but most people who have FMIC tend to have EMS .... therefore the best intake would be a filter attached to the turbo

Nah, I completly agree that area could be used for intake air. I just disagree that it does NOT recieve ram air.

sounds like we need a fluid dynamics specialist to consult on the air flow characteristics. some say yay others say nay. Too bad we can't ask someone whose job is answering these questions. However, be that it brings air in or not, the engine will still suck air in, air is everywhere and there is no vacuum inside the engine bay so suffocating the engine I doubt will be a problem, no matter where it is. As far as heat is concerned, thermowrap the pipe and gold plate the outside of the airbox, it is infact one of the best heat reflectors, why else would the McLaren F1's engine bay be completely lined with gold.
