Reversed scoop


ADIKT

Recommended Posts

Have done a search and cant find jack shit on how to do it...

Had a good look at my bonnet today and it look likes if you turn it around it wont fit in properly...

I know funky did his and he said it was real easy... but how?

Its either i do this or get rid of the scoop completely and get it smoothed over. And just have the 2 22b vents..

Any help is much appreciated!! ;)

no its really simple and word of warning, it looks good from far, but far from good.

1) remove the scoop from bonnet

2) remove all the fasteners (bolt ends) from the scoop apart from the middle ones at the front and back (this leaves only 2)

3) spin the scoop round and you'll see these two holes still line up

4) you'll also notice the scoop isnt symetrical in the hole

5) get your craft knife out and start shaping the edge on each side thats offending.

6) trim and refit until its right

Youl have two small gaps left over which is obvious and it only bolts in with two bolts now. so if you get keen glue the sucker in and silicon the small gaps to stop water getting in.

My car got thrashed at 200km/h +@ the track all weekend backwards with only the two bolts in it and its fine fwiw :)

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
