08leggy Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Does this do anything? From common sense I would think it helps direct air from the scoop into the inter cooler but I'm not sure. I would like to remove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmoe Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I yanked mine a few days ago. Car still goes forward OK. Don't think it does a thing besides look perty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08leggy Posted April 2, 2008 Author Share Posted April 2, 2008 I mean the WRX doesn't have it so unless there hood and scoop is designed differently to come down onto the inter cooler further than it has no purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackHole Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Besides covering up the plumbing, the cover does serve a functional purpose - ducting the hood scoop airflow through the TMIC, increasing airflow through the core, thus increasing cooling capacity.

qikslvr Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Wow! You have way to much free time on your hands. I does look pretty cool though. Mine won't fit anymore without being hacked up so it's been off for almost a year. Let's kick this pig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
