Oh,  man!  I just noticed they moved the air intake to one of those   
cone filters - behind the firewall.  All good and fine IF the  hood  
scoop was making use of the low pressure area, which it is  NOT  
because it is just ugly cosmetic concoction.  :-(   Wonder if they  
added to GREDDY boost controller, too?  That  should really f*ck  
things up.  Stay AWAY!!  I'm cc'ing  this to the 200q20v list 'casue  
they really need to know what's  happened to one of theirs...

 Ummm... Ingo.... 
 
1) The base of the windshield to include the waterbox area  is a  high 
pressure area, it makes perfect sense to place the air inlet in this  area.
 
 2) I like to use Greddy Profec Type S boost controllers
 
 I'll agree the addition of a Camaro cowl induction scoop does nothing  for 
the car particularly since its way too far forward to take advantage of the  
high cowl pressure for even underhood cooling.
 
 Other than the scoop and paint (ugh) what really annoys me is the  SSBC 
brake install... if you look closely you'll see it appears all that was  done was 
to install SSBC calipers on the G60 rotors.... some upgrade.
