I cannot see your vid but if your using it for purge vents I wont call rice, but if your putting none functional scoops and vents on your car it's straight up Uncle Ben's baby.

i couldnt get it to play on my computer at first. windows media player is my default player and it kept popping up and saying it couldnt play.you have to enable quicktime,(and realplayer if you want) through the control panel.or easy way... just right click to save. go to it and right click,open with, quicktime.and my old kit was a venom kit and the control module busted. its just a pile of parts without it.but if anybody wants a pile of parts.......

northvibe · Post by **northvibe** » Wed May 30, 2007 5:38 am

i said open with quicktime and got the"this is not a movie file" error

Those don't look that bad. Y'know, that might help those of us with short ram intakes also, just to purge some of the heat out from under the hood. Think I would paint them body color though.They kind of remind me of the Buick "portholes" that some models had/have on their front fenders.

satur9 · Post by **satur9** » Fri Jun 01, 2007 5:55 am

its actually the ones off the dodge chargers. the chrome matches my chrome and black graphics. and chrome door handles,tailight covers,wipers,centercaps,etc. plus all the chrome inside. click the link in my sig to check out my car domain page for more pics.

Celtic_Curse · Post by **Celtic_Curse** » Sun Jun 03, 2007 10:29 am

That looks really good again...are you gonna match it on the other side and have double venting?

NUBlackshirts · Post by **NUBlackshirts** » Mon Jun 04, 2007 12:19 am

I forgot to ask....how do they attach?

Dang Saturn very cool way to make use of those things Quote, originally posted by NUBlackshirts Â»Those don't look that bad. Y'know, that might help those of us with short ram intakes also, just to purge some of the heat out from under the hood. Think I would paint them body color though. or how bout adding Computer heat extractor fans to the hood and "venting" or "pulling" the hot air out through thouse ports

satur9 · Post by **satur9** » Mon Jun 04, 2007 5:38 am

they stick on with double sided tape. heat extraction is cool and all. but without some kind of baffling water would get on the filter.and that washes the oil off and makes a mess and clogs the mafs. i had my hood open in a light drizzle and that happened.maybey if i switched to aem dry flow.but the fuse box is also right under there.some type of sealed airbox would work better.
