Astra,

We made a scoop where the back of it was opened up and there was a partition in the middle with the specific intent of catching the backdraft. At the dyno, we gained 0 HP from this design.

CooperSdriver, the standard kit is just the OEM lower tube with no "y" pipe scoops. You still have to dremmel out your firewall area in order to draw cold air in.

Regards,

Dan

Hi, i am italian (execuse me for my bad english), i have a BMC CDA air filter installed, but the position of my filter it's no good because i have a fear that water can go in the engine in this position (the most common for the CDA), this new coinvogliator can eliminate this problem?
