well the scoops are functional but the air thats brought into the engine bay disrupts the flow around the engine actually causing more negative then positive.. basicly is disturbes the laminar flow of air in the engine bay

Gee, that's a good description of flow laminarity, Brew. Actually, it would cause a disruption of airflow from bottom to top. The scoops were originally made as as a cold-air intake kit for the NA mr2.

I met up with them at the border and drove the rest of the way there with them. I have a green 90 honda accord. Cars are pretty sick. I have a bunch of people coming to ImportFest this year. Just waiting on the date.
