Well the vote was in favor of the scoop, and here are the pics with and without.

 

Sexy man. I love the scoop. But then again, I'm not one to be a stickler to keeping it as it was off the showroom floor.

Its awesome, keep it. What other first gen has a scoop coming out of the hood? The offset on the passenger side just makes it more badass. Beautiful indeed.

 

not my taste at all. it ruins the look of the car. if it doesnt have a setup that needs the scoop with butterflies then dont rice it up with fake crap. if it does well then thats a differnet story... some modification may be needed to make everything functional. though still not for me.

 

Looks cool man, as long as there is a blower under there to back it up.

 

Truly functional!

 

damn, your supercharger, carb, and scoop are bigger than the engine. you have a nice car, but i think i liked it better without the scoop.

 

i say keep the scoop its functional , but it would look wicked with an air dam

 

I second that !!!

 

The future holds a turbo, a twincharging effort, at that point the scoop will go. In the meantime, i need the fresh air, and it sure turns heads so i like it. The only additional plans for this year is a mild shot of nitrous. I need a new steering box, if the next doesn't work out than I may save up for the rack & pinion conversion.

 

I love the car with the scoop. The whale tail spoiler stands out, so there's no point trying to go low key now. You just need an airdam as mentioned to round out the street monster look and you'll be set.

Definitly go with the R&P kit. dj55b has one on his car and it is a huge improvement over the stock system. I just wish I was able to hold onto money long enough to get one.

 

paint the scoop red to match the car. might blend in a little better. might.

 

First gen RX7's...

So cool, its OK to park them on your lawn.

 

if its functional i guess its alright. but with out it looks way cleaner.

 

Get rid of the chrome.

... I came.

 

To heck with the nay sayers. The scoop looks killer. If your happy with it, who gives a crap what any one else thinks.

 

Got the plumbing done for the nitrous, picked a bottle location, just gotta hook up fuel and electronics over the next few days. Planning on wiring an activation switch and a trigger button. I really don't trust a full throttle switch.

 

Oh gosh

 

Must see dyno slips for sure when completed.

 

the scoop looks sick! keep it! and it should scare people a little...

but then you cant drive the car at all if it rains

 

Yes you can, the butterflies open on acceleration, plus there is an opening in front and in behind the air filter for drainage. It's not a daily driver though, only sees rain by accident maybe twice a year.

 

the onyl scoop that looks good imo is a second gen TII scoop molded on to the stock stock hood, but that's just me.

 

i think it would be more bad *** with a cowl hood

 

Offset cowl induction? I dunno about that. It would be funky to say the least.

 

that whole car would look better with out that damn wing...

Car looks clean with or with out the scoop...but i like the scoop...Nice set up bro...

 

speaking of that wing, what kind is it!?
