I'm not holding my breath for major gains on this one, but who knows. What do you all think?

It certainly looks cool! Like you said, who knows how it will perform. It's too bad they did not run some numbers yet. So I guess all we can hope is that whoever buys their test car up in Michigan becomes a forum member here and lets us know the SCOOP!

I'm gonna call them, I read somewhere that the shaker hood for the GT only generated a gain of 3HP, so this is probably more of a looks upgrade. Not sure though, so we need to get some info from Fang.

They are actually listed under thier appearance section, so we shall see:

Here is the email I got from them just now:

Hi Todd,
We have not performed any performance gain numbers on it. We suspect the gain will not be significant. There will be more air available to the factory filter. But with out a computer tune probably won't be that noticeable. We built the functional box so guys could have a functional scoop without voiding any warranties.
Hope this helps. Any thing else I can help you with just let me know.

Adis Long

Any word on price? I see the hood is different (there's a peak at the nose similar to the 69's). From the wording, that may be part of the package. That would be a help to those of us who cringe at the idea of cutting their hood, but it might make it a bit pricey. Regardless, I say "wooohooo".

I was torn between getting a Shaker Hood or a California Dream hood, but I couldn't get the Shaker because they didn't make it for the V6. Now that it is around, I am defiantly getting this one! I can't wait to see the price.

LOL. The california dream hood is on my list. I think the shaker hood is 1200, about 400 mroe than the dream hood.
