i saw on the internet that there is a kit that will make the hood scoop on my gt functional, the way it works is you cut the honeycomb out and put in the carbon fiber piece that brings the air down to an air box that you install instead of the normal stock setup, i was wondering if anyone had heard anything about this kit, or had one and was happy with it or thought it sucked

 

Those are a waste of money! Go to www.tunableinduction.com and spend your money wisely.

 

why is it a waste of money, wouldnt it be better to pull air from above the hood than from the fender, or is there something functionally wrong with them or what? plus it would just be cool to have something that tricked out.

air is not dense enough to be forced into the engine with out a sc or turbo. the air in the fenderwell is just as cool as on the hood. whatever difference there maybe be, its not much. with a hood scoop you have to worry about leaves and rain going in there. a ram air set up is only going to add a couple of hp and thats about 100mph. save your money and get something usefull

 

ok cool, well this kit says that it has a vacum driven door or whatever to keep the water out, but what you said made it seem not worth it so thanks man, by the way im not really gonna get this i was just wondering what peoples thoughts were

where is this darned kit at and how much does it cost?

Thanks,

i dont remember the site, i saw it a while back and havent given it much thought till now, but try searching ram air for mustang gt or something like that
