This works with ANY intercooler upgrade or stock.

Hope that helps!

Thanks again folks! We always appreciate the opportunity to help!

I wouldnt hesitiate to use a water/meth injection system as I used a Snow Performance kit on my Cummins Diesel. On the Diesel it was aiding near 100hp gain alone. But I wont get one till Alta fixes the header issues on the Twurbo kit. I have been waiting far to long, and everytime a new product comes out it does erk one a bit.....fwiw

Thanks for asking! We haven't tried it ourselves, but it certainly appears that it would work fine. Because the opening on the M7 core is narrower, it may require slight additional trimming to match the larger mouth on the ALTA V 2.0

NOTE: To the group. If someone does this can they post photos please? We have lots of clients with the same concern and would love to send them to get the scoop if it works.

Thanks to all!

Sid, The last two are actually the same scoop(i think). A DrPhil modified M7 RAM for the DFIC and his air box diverter.

Actually, the last 2 are 2 different scoops. The way that M7 gets the scoops laid up, it's like a sink--an outer shape and an inner shape, with an air space between and then glued together. When you cut them you quickly see the outer-gap-inner structure. Hence you can't simply "cut" the RHS of the DF scoop away and get my scoop. Much easier to modify the Ram scoop.
BTW, Sid--I installed the thermocouples this morning! No leaks. Now to install the gauge this evening...then off to measure.
cheers,
