i told you, a flat head and a rag. put the rag aroung the tip of the flat head so it doesnt scratch the paint and pry the scoop off

Your gonna need something stronger than mesh to cover that hole up. A rock flying at it can tear into that easily. Also leave the hood be what your talking about is creating a ram air, which is only beneficial at high speeds, and gives you the same power that a cold air intake does.

Gains nothing he is just in a real hot climate so it might make is breaking alittle better and let his breaks get some air. and no opening up the hood scoop and not connecting it would just be blowing air on your engine doing nothing which is what your cowl is for. but if you could hook it up to you intake someway it would be ram air.
