Bonnet scoop
 
Should have put this with my other post, i know sieve like memory.

on the question of cold air intakes and where to route the chappie to get cold air, has anyone considered fitting a normal cone induction kit but supplying it with cold air through a bonnet scoop? a la ram air method, just a thought as i'm considering it but would be interested in any thoughts, there are some nice scoops around and i can get the bodywork done pretty easily and cheaply too.

Stick the cone induction into the inner wing. Plenty of cold air there rather than a silly looking bonnet scoop on a MG.

Yeah, a suttle scoop may look okay, although I will never forget the horrific one that did the rounds on barryboys!

a bonnet scoop on a zs will look pure Disgusting,and its also been debated hundreds of times over, the best place for an induction kit on a 180 is ib the inner wing
