One of the ways to increase power is to direct more cooled air into intake system
(Basic tuning - on a charged engine well it does not much on a 75 HP car but a car that already has 500 it is veey much notable)
These Scoops diffently direct more cool "Charged air" to the intake than the very much so restricted factory plastic scoops + plastic tubes are so bad one side skinny some places while other side is not so restricted. So diffently more than factory ever could provide.
THE but is only works when moving that'
A fact but More Air MEANS more Power
and yes they also gives a very very nice look

More Charged Air = More Power

While yes more charged air more power, these "Scoops" don't add to the intake air mass and its easy to test. Also everyone claims that the stock induction system is too restrictive should do some testing and see that it's not.
