Not trying to thread jack but what is it about these scoops that makes it so they don't fit other models? From the pics it looks like they would fit my C43


P.S. The Lambo green is SICK!

A UK E55, which was one of the first to have a set of the TTM scoops, picked up 2+ MPH on a VMax 1 mile event from his previous best.

Glad you are KILLIN' it up top Elliot!!!!!!

Send me a picture of the intake openings on each side of the radiator so I can see if they will. Send them to tuningtechnology@aol.com and I'll get back to you.

My latest race in "Mexico" is on youtube.(last saturday) I race an E55 running on E85. In the vid when we launch at the same time, I pulled on him at about 110mph. Our mods are nearly identical except he is on corn and spraying 100 shot of sauce. No spray for our runs and we were dead even until 110mph.
These scoops really push some air into the tubes. My car has never felt better. Thanks Bruce!

I really like the color combination but as far as hp results you might be a bit off with your data. Those ram air scoops do not add power by forcing air (if that's what you're suggesting), they add a small bit of power by cooling down the intake charge. What you're actually doing is lessening the pressure that the supercharger has to produce.

+1 that's what the data has shown

about 5% more volume and -.55 in/Hg in pressure to ingest air

Yes, I'm aware of all the data. Why do think I have them But every one that knows me, Knows that I added all the intake at once with additional cooling. That's kinda what I was talking about. And thank you! I like the color as well.
