hey guys, did some researchin, did u know that scoops might not be good for a stock car ? i didnt know that LOL ..

aerodynamically having a scoop actually creates more hot air pressure build up in the engine bay ... if dats the case how does the c one bonnet works ?

i dont know about that one mate. I havent read the other thread but when I installed a carbon fibre scooped bonnet on my old car, it definitely improved performance. Not only was it significantly lighter but it let in a lot more cold air into the engine.

My scoop was backward facing though. I would recommend getting a backward facing one. Becuase it creates an outlet, more cold air comes in and more hot air goes out......'

win/win. I was real pleased because I thought the only major benefit would from the weight but I saw a clear improvement in throttle response and generally power aswell.
