Default Fast and Furious

I went out saturday and watched the new fast and furious movie (sweet movie), and loved the carburator/scoop thingy(not sure what it is called) on van desiel's car. I was just wondering if i could put one on my mustang. Here is one on wikipedia, i couldnt find the exact on that i am thinking of (it had 3 holes facing foward and the flaps opened when he reved the engine). I have seen one similar in a jegs magazine but cant find it online. Here is the wikipedia link that has a pic of one-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_&_Furious_(2009_film). Thanks ahead of time for the help.

I believe the very top is just a air intake, but is typically used on a blower setups. They can be attached to just the carb though if you want the look

there is a STOCK early 90's T-bird around here with one of those stuck on top of the motor. Superglued on I think. Not attractive at all. Thought he had a blower at first, but when he got on it all thoughts of a fast car were erased. I bet my Jeep could take him.

My friend went to some show where they had Vin Diesel's Fast and Furious car there from this new movie, and that blower is just bolted to the hood. FAKE!
