Is there any way a hood could be made that resembled a stock TII hood but had a NACA duct to vent air to the turbo? I want something like this but just cringe at the idea of cutting up my aluminum hood.

Thanks for the help guys!

Yes, we can certainly do any part under two options:
1. We can custom produce the hood and duct for your specification but it will be very expensive.
2. We will need at least 15 people interested in this product then we can get a GB going.

How expensive is very expensive, ballpark figure.

How about a duct that WE can install on the hood? Saves you time and saves us $.

Price for custom hood with custom ducting will be in the $1000-2000 range depending on actual amount of time and material involved in the production.

Sure, as long as we get enough people interested in the same product, we will be able to make it happen. :)

should we talk dimensions and get some people interested?

Also, how likely are you to make the Panspeed hood? If you think it's something that you see happening in the future than I would go ahead and wait for it. Either way, we can still talk dimensions to see if interest increases.

we would like to see it happen also but it totally depends on the amount of interests we get from the customers so you guys are in control here. :D

What would be the cost of the panspeed hood if we do have the inter?

Can someone link a pic of the Panspeed hood? It might already have what I am thinking about.

I don't know why but every time you like went in close on something and kind of turned the cam to the side a little it made it seem all dramatic and I was laughing the entire vid.

.... I must be drunk or something :rofl:

Amazingly that was never an issue for me.... just don't let me sit down and become relaxed when I'm blasted.... consciousness takes a hiatus and the subconsciousness decides to mingle a bit with everyone at the party and apparently all I talk about is PS3 :dunno:

I don't even own one and I've only played on one once.
