Looks like it's gonna be pricey.. any sponsors willing to make a replica?!

Ugly as hell but I bet it performs.

I wonder if there is a way to do this in a top mount design, kinda like what they do on Subarus. You could integrate it with the air box so that the flow would go:

Hood scoop->IC->Airbox->Intake

The natural vacuum coming from the turbos coupled by a slight ram affect from the hood scoop could provide some really nice flow.

I guess we could try for $75 including shipping!!!!
