[DeTomaso] Kurt Busch Pantera

[Rich Hoppe]

I have the small scoops on one of my cars with fuel injection.  I am in Arizona.  I also get significant cooler temp with them.  My car runs a lot better in the summer because of the cooler air.  I don’t know or care about any ram air benefits at high speeds.  The cool air benefit is what I was looking for. Rich

The only way that the engine can get air into it is through the side scoops. There have been a number of people that have seen this set up on my car at the last four Pantera fun rallies. I have engine inlet air temperature readings in real time that tell me what the air temperature is with the scoops attached and with them unattached. My tests showed that the air is 40 degrees hotter with the hoses unattached. With fuel injection and an on dash monitor it is very easy to test this. The car will be at the next fun rally wherever it will be and we can do some testing there.
