Hi all
Bit late as ive already done it but on the classic shape scoobs, there is a metal duct which comes from the bonnet (cold air feed from scoop) and funnels down to the turbo mesh shield thing.
While i was bored yesterday, i noticed that the feed duct had a metal plate covering most of it and being a lateral thinker, decided that it needed to be removed.
My theory, while almost taking the end of my finger off in the process, was that more cold air channelling in through the duct, the better it would be at cooling the turbo.
Like i said, i have already carried out this mission and need some reassurance that its was a good thing and/or wont cause any damage!?

Thanks

Johnny

Here it is



Note how open it is. It did have a plate welded into it covering most of ot over. Air had to travel to its edges.

You might want to watch out for excessive rain water falling on the hot turbo and cracking it.
