| from my experience, scoops are just a place to put your car number. I doubt you will see much gain from swapping them....

Dead on. I'd be willing to bet most cars would see a minimal difference if it was turned around backwards

| I think there is a considerable difference depending on the scoop shape. The first scoop I had on my dragster was a somewhat older scoop, almost identical to the harwood Aero Comp III scoop. When I changed to the scoop I have now, I picked up more than a full tenth and over 3 mph with nothing else changed. Yes, I confirmed it was the scoop that made the change.... But with the newer ones out there, I'm not sure they would make a difference unless something is in the way of one and not the other....

Was that in Colorado though? Reason I'm asking is, I talked to a few people who ran Vortech or Pro Chargers on some top sportsman cars out there and they said they couldn't make full boost up there until they cut a hole in the nose. Just wonder if its due to lack of oxygen? Would it matter less at sea level? |
