That is great Paul.Too bad we did not find out earlier.BTW is there
anyway we can use the hood scoop to help in cooling the intercooler.Thanks
Michael
Those hood scoops are not ideal air scoops. They take in the boundary layer
which is not good. Better to use the stock opening on the right side of the
cowl. The scoops are mostly cosmetic. It might be possible to open up the back
side to let some air out of the engine compartment. You need to run a few
pressure test with a water manometer. I flew down to Tracy's place in Florida
and instrumented his cooling system with a water manometer in 2002 and made some
significant improvements.
