It's another local guy that I went to school with. He make parts for all the old rods and exports them to USA.Well I might as well let the cat out of the bag. It does include a bonnet scoop. IN FACT it will be the first XR6Turbo that I'm aware of that will have the SHAKER scoop from the GTHO. And yes it will work it's not for show only, for all you doubters :lol: Force fed cooooold air. If all goes well we might do a kit, depends on response from membersBig Mick if you read this post it will also include a catch can.

Its the scoop that's being made by the people that do the xr8/gt shaker right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait either, I lay in bed at night going over and over the design hoping that I have'nt missed anything. I'm hoping also to use it to feed excess cold air into and around the engine bay as well. Will have to wait and see about that one. Don't want to rob the turbo of any air. Although I think there should be plenty for every day driving. The scoop is'nt from the mornington people. I purchased it from GT Performance in Keilor. I think thir website is www.fomoco.com.au They loved the idea and want to add pictures of my car on their site when it's done.Don't worry fellas you will be the first to see it when it's complete. macka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's as good as it sounds, I'll save about $4000 on the motec alone. Man that money will be good to put into some brakes don't you think.
