   the scoop is on the slam panel to much so if i cut the rubber pipe down that goes to the inlet would that move it away from the slam panle?

   I had to cut my silicone pipe to about 1/2 of what it was because of some kind of reservoir... it just brings it left a little bit.
   What engine is it?

    I went to halfords to get some stereo mounting brackets, and made the brackets in that guide above. they do the job perfectly.
    I only needed one (2 pack for £3), and you should be able to see where they go- at either end of the enclosure.
    Drill 2 holes, screw in 2 self tappers, and job's a good 'un!

    I made brackets out of some metal strapping stuff and got a couple of nuts and attached it to the slack on the nut that holds the radiator on. If you look on your car theres one either side. Worked a treat

    could i cut a hole into the front of the slam pannle to let more air into the scoop? would it be safe? and would it make any differance?
