I reckon its not right with the scoop, either fit a reverse scoop as well or go GX bonnet...........

just thinking that if you are using a "turbo" bonnet (with the scoop) that the hot air is going to come out the vent and then go back in the scoop.

perhaps??

The hot air that comes out from the vent will be rapidly cooled imo when it exists. So if there is any air going back through the scoop i think it would be close to the same air temp.

The WRC cars still have a functional scoop as this is where the air filter sits. So mustnt be much of a problem imo..

hey how's the dual 044 external setup going? does it run ok off the single feed line?
and if you dont mind me asking, how much extra did kev charge you for the modified setup?

Was lucky enough to see your car in full flight on the dyno today, the sound and the power it made was mind blowing

The engine bay is a work of art, well done. Awesome car, all involved should be very proud.
