looks awesome but heres the million dollar question is it operational? Got an engine bay picture? I myself was looking at the TII scoops and just decided that it wouldnt be worth it if it wasnt operational.

Yes, it is functional.. I don't have a T-II IC to cool, but I do have a turbo and all of it's associated heat, and I've found that the under-hood temps are kept in check by the extra air and the venting provided by the scoop.

On the NACA duct air-intake, yes on a stock car it would make more sense, but my car has a custom turbo kit with the airbox located on the drivers side. See pics.. sorry about the spelling error...





Cheers,
