you know..... if you had a hard tonneau like one from jre, you could put a scoop on it near the rear and pipe it to the turbos. then it would act like a snorkel almost

i still think with the turbos 5' from the heads it wouldn't be ideal but who knows. it would be fun to try.

i will probably stick with something close to what i have for awhile.

if you had a hard tonneau.... i wonder what it would sound like if you drew in fresh air, dumped the exhaust right out of the turbo with no piping and used the whole bed as a resonator. of course having an exhaust port near the rear

That's funny . I think the NITROUS is leaking into the A/C system.
