Scot, thanks in advance for letting me use your wheels for a few hours to check the gapping, ride height and snap some pics. My wheels should arrive Friday. Can’t wait to meet you in person at SEMA.
The car is primed and in the process of being final-blocked. The hood you see in the pictures is a stock hood, not our modified hood. We get that back on Friday and took the time to make molds of the scoops in case other people want to modify their formula hood to something more aggressive.
We decided to remove the stock hood latch so that the intake pipes can come straight out toward the front and down into the intercoolers. We are installing two flush-mount Aero Catch latches on the hood. The guys at All Speed created custom pockets for the intake plumbing. They created a pocket in the center for a emblem.
Paint has been selected and ordered and we will be spraying on Saturday. I plan to record that!
Thank to everyone for the awesome feedback over the last few months. It has kept us on our toes and identified several issues that we needed to address.
Enjoy!
