Bobby, i know you mentioned this last time you were at the shop. i liked your idea of making a duck from the from scoop to an intake box feeding the turbo filter. i have the idea in my head i just lack the metal skills to make you an air box lol, i think it can be done with some cutting and some basic 1/4 inch sheet metal it should be pretty simple.

I have all the parts (4" 90 couplers and 4" polished aluminum). I was just looking for a pic before I started cutting a hole in the hood.

Doesn`t the Scoote hood already have a scoop in the center of its hood, so wy cut a new? Can`t you take a pipe or a hose är redirect the air from the existing one?

That black 3 rotor car from Canada did something like this. We just ran a pipe up right infront of the scoop and put the filter there. Looked good and its functional.
