This looks interesting... I was told Induction kit would be more effective if I could channel cold air to it. Will this do the trick? If so, how much? And do they arrive unpainted? If so, how much are they painted?

Cheers

necromax,

I had them made to push cold air to my Blitz induction kit. I have never made any claims that they work, but several people have noticed a difference with one fitted. One user commented that the backing (metal) plate of his induction kit used to be hot at the end of a thrash, but after fitting a scoop was still cool to the touch. I can supply in either Glassfibre or carbonfibre, neither are painted, thats down to you. Mail me offline for prices.

Thumbs up

They will make a difference...

The cold air hose you get with the kit is impossible to fit and is a torturous route for the air. The air intake under the indicators is pretty poor too.

The scoop vent sits right above the cone so will have air chenneling straight in... trust me im an engineer
