faithless88 Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 While I was wondering my auto parts store today I saw a scoop that you can just place onto the hood with some adhesive. How well do these work as in just how long do they last? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faithless88 Posted August 5, 2007 Author Share Posted August 5, 2007 Yes I know but I could make it functional with out much problem. I do know how to do that so I might just do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daeron Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Yes I know but I could make it functional with out much problem. I do know how to do that so I might just do that. A functional hood scoop usually involves a top mounted intercooler; unless its a backwards pointing hood scoop, venting air out from the engine bay, in which case its functionality is debatable because they typically "Vent" into the highest pressure area on the vehicle, the base of the windshield.

Reveeen Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 From the look of things you have a nice little wagon there. Might I suggest you locate a so-so hood to carve up (putting yours away just in case you change your mind at a later date). Usually when a "younger fella" gets it in his head to do some hood carving, he usually does it, and regrets it later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 I had an L-series with no scoop So I made a little hole Got it where I wanted it. Painted it a little One big difference though. I have this. My car is now so gangsta I have my own posse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My kid knows all about the hardcore habits of the sesame street gang when the cameras are off We've been trying to get Grover to stop smoking, but no dice I have at least managed to get bert to stop drinking crappy beer and move up to Newcastle.

Without that raspy voice, grover isnt Grover.. next up, you have to do something about Bert's shirt. Although honestly I can't say I would feel to comfortable if they actually changed him, as tacky as his turtleneck is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beataru Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 just buy a wrx lookalike, and it will work jsut fine, unless you want to find one from say, a P1 or something rarer.... Mines home Depo Made, although it looks great from far away, it has some issues real up close that I plan to fix when I get the chance...

I would have to agree the pink is rockin you:banana: You guys got me Lost in Translation... :-\ ...What is the Meanin´ of "Rockin´ the Pink"??? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Well... I know a non-functional Scoop can be such a "Ricer" thing, but I Still Like the Looks of a Good Shaped Scoop on a EA82... I´ll Love to got one on my Yellow Wagon, Painted in Black; (might be Soon) and I was thinkin´ on another scoop for my Weberized EA82, just to Increase the Loudness of the EA82´s ROAR thru the Full Throttle Weber! ... But I don´t know How I can keep off the Rain... :-\ ...any Idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beataru Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Your not going to keep out the rain if you are sucking in air though it, why not make your intake V-mounted.... Yeah I dont know how it would work either but, mabey if you were a genious then mabey it would work(if you dont know what v-mounted is... well then just say so and I will tell you) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 ...(if you dont know what v-mounted is... well then just say so and I will tell you) Well... What is a V-Mounted Intake? ... Will it Increase engine´s Performance? ... will it Greaten Gas Consuption? And... What is Rockin´ the Pink? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beataru Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Heh, I dont know what I was saying, V-mounted is when you have say a Radiator and an Intercooler, Both use air to cool, and instead of putting them one on top of theother, you mount them in a V just draw a V horizontally and youll see what I mean, this is so that each gets its own supply of fresh air... sorry I was just making nonsense about a Vmounted Intake, but, maybe with some sheetmetal you could slope it somehow so that the water hits it and then roles off, idk, but a little water wont hurt anything at all, but you dont want to hydrolock so.....
