Fo real..... reading the first time is hard enough for some

also, of all the hood scoops around, his is probably the only one on this site that is truely functional.
he did a perfect job of getting everything out of the mod.
I doubt most people who add a scoop would go to the lengths he did.
You dont think hoods such as the RK Sport G5 hood would do the same, the port for the intake box lines up directly over the GMPP intake box, and it has two scoops which duct into this opening...

show me a hood that ports its vents directly into the intake box.

(i havent seen the underside of the g5 hood) but all the rest are mainly for just venting warm air from the engine bay

RKsport and the suncoast hood are both RAM AIR HOODS. The suncoast hood, is really nice, but the RKsport has my vote as the better deal.

this is the RK sport for the Cobalt, it lines up and seals perfect with the GMPP intake set up

the G5 one just looks dif to match the Pontiac grills

id say youd get something of an improvement yah.
but truthfully i think lewis' would probably get better gains.

but yeah, thats pretty much the only hood ive seen that actually makes the intake functional as an intake

pretty cool.

And the CF hood weights like nothing mroe then 8lbs... its a win-win situation. I don't like the problems No2 causes when spraying. So that's out of the option, I don't want to blow up my intake or fry a piston.
