I know that thing is so big it's ridiculous.. As for the fabrication, I will be honest with you, I have devoted all my time and thought to getting my EMS figured out and setup that I haven't done anything with it.. I plan to do a layout this weekend if I can squeeze it in.. I am also doing some work making an adjustable jig setup for my buddy and myself to use with our routers.. I will post more info latter on that one...

Did you modify the splitter? If you didn't you might notice at higher speeds you might see some hood lift. Check the distance from the splitter to the new scoop. I have an 04 WRX with an STi scoop. There is about 3/4 of an inch diff. So alot of air passes over the splitter. I modified the splitter so it just touched the scoop. No more hood lift at highway speed. You also get more air going thru the Intercooler which means colder air charge = more power.....

Thanks

Oh yeah forgot to add I really like the black scoop on a white car.. Looks good...
