Maybe a vendor dispute or something. You can almost see the scoops in this link.

The thread wasnt started by voltage was it? Why would they get rid of somebody showing off something new? These forums arent run by money hungry ****'s is it? Id hate to find out that the mini community is like all the other forums that police everything they dont get a cut of.Anyway,i think those are is old scoops in those pics but cant be sure,kinda hard to see.Does anyone else have these?If not i guess ill just have to find the source directly.

His thread is still there. It has always been in the "drivetrain" area. Long thread about his stroker engine that he is continuing with his others mods as he does them..

That's a different thread. But it does have some pics of the scoops. He had a thread dedicated completely to the scoops in this forum.

If you are looking for some nice cowl scoops check out Orciari.
They have a website.
You can purchase them from the factoty direct in Italy.
I have them on my car.
Excellant quality.
No I am not affilated with Orciari.

did you pick them up in person or did they ship to you?

I put an order in for some parts from them at the end of March, and all they have told me is that they are behind on shipments... I havent heard from them recently.

I actually picked them up,I live in the area.It was kinda random and he said they were super behind on orders but they had a custom carbon scoop just laying around for a while that he forgot about,guess i just got lucky on that on but the cowl scoops he said are usually in stock and if not they are only 1 to 2 days out.I tried to get some pedals also but they didnt have them on hand and he said they would just ship them to me at the end of the week.seemed like he had his hands full of a bunch of stuff though.

I dont think he is coming back, the last post was in May, and the OP has 15 posts total in almost a year of being on the boards.

Send an email to Voltage products I'm sure they will explain it to ya.
