2010 ms3 hood

[Duha]

So i was curious if it was possible to fit the new hood from the 2010 ms3 on a 2008.5? and if that would help any getting more air to the whimpy tmic? and to be honest i think it would look pretty sickk with a hood scoop :]

yeah, not gonna happen.

didn't even have to read to know what you were going to ask... Won't work

oh yeah its a direct swap so is a ls3 camaro drivetrain it bolts right up, and is totally plug n play

I doubt it will give noticable benefits compared to the stock setup which has ducts designed to flow over the IC.

dicks!! lmfao

you can do it but it requires some controlled burns to clear away some of the excess metal

Just as a side thought, it would be interesting to know if the new hood scoop flows any better/differently than the current grill ducting. I seriously doubt it would be enough of an improvement to warrant the cost of swapping, even if it were possible. You'd probably get a decent FMIC with less cost and work, resulting in far better charge air cooling.

Hate to burst all your bubbles but I got it to bolt on no problems. Just made new brackets.

Now to get it to close.
