Honeycomb hood scoop
So i was thinking today of how much i hate the honeycomb hood scoop and how it is just looks fake. So i took off sound dampener and saw about 6 nuts holding my scoop on. I took them off and removed the scoop. And i stand back and looked at my hood without the scoop on it. And without it the hood is a regular v6 hood. So you know how the v6 hood has a inverted scoop, i was thinking i could cut that out and remove my honey comb grill and then it would be a functioning hood scoop. So i did it. I cut the hood were the v6 scoop was, cut the sound dampener and removed the honey comb had to do alittle cutting were the honeycomb was. And wa-la functional hood scoop. Looks good too, looks very factory.

i don't think it was a good idea. hope you like your engine bay getting wet and cleaning it out. plus the camaros have that and the difference between the non-hood scope and hood scope is 15 hp and 0 tq to the crank, but those cars are made for it. just my two cents

What about rain, road dirt, etc.? [/align][/align]I drive 100+ miles a days through all sort of heavy rain, construction wirk, etc. and the forward facing scoop I tried on my s/c'd '90 Miata (even ducted to a plenum/drain/catch pan) sucked up dirt and water like a shop-vac...[/align]

Good for you. Now if we can just figure out a way to fix the side scoops.
i bought a 00 over an 01 with the same price with a little less miles, because i couldn't stand the fake *** brake vents on the side of the 01+. Ialso hated the fakeass hood scoop on the 01-04.Funny thing is,most people think the side scoops and hood scoopsare functional. I hate how ford riced it out from the factory.
