Message	If the intake design was a must then I would at least cover it with a big hood scoop. To me nothing about the way that intake looks is attractive. It's also kinda hard for me to take it seriously looks-wise I would honestly laugh at it even if it's passing me in warp drive mode. Not to mention it's not the most aerodynamic looking setup. I think as red neck and outrageous a hood scoop can be: if the car is BAD ASS enough then it deserves to look ridiculous!.....(to a point) *disclaimer*: all that I say may be true or I may be completely wrong and I accept that.... please, it is your duty as another person on the internet to impolitely tell me how wrong I am :) "The dreaded 2nd windshiled wiper swipe when you turn it off its almost like tis showing you that it's boss, and it doesn't have to stop when you tell it to :("-College Boy (discussion on ptu relocation) "No good reason to put it there anyway. -Bernie (NoVA) False -vorpalZ False. -Bernie (NoVA) You're correct, there are 3 good reasons -vorpalZ False. -Bernie (NoVA) Wow, right again, just remembered another, make that 4 -vorpalZ" XD
