No one has mentioned the ER27 or EZ30,
I know where ther is a 700hp turbo (ex Twin Turbo) EG33...

I think an RS liberty bonnet scoop would look trick as...

Have you seen the dyno printout? :lol:
Seriously, you'd have a hard time jaming that into a Brumby, twin intercoolers and all.
And if it was any good, why did Vern ditch it for an LS1?

There is NOTHING wrong with a scoop as long as you are running the appropriate donk underneath it.

The WonderBrumby runs cooler turbo'd and scooped than it did EJ22 and non scooped.

Same cooling system.

I am pretty much set now on one of the slim line RS Liberty scoops. My only concern is the small scoop won't draw through enough air for a top mounted intercooler. Has anyone got their intercooler in a different spot?

A mate suggested up under the bumper in front of one of the wheels but that seems really stupid to me on a car that will be going off-road.

The RS lib scoops aren't really designed to dump air on a top mount intercooler but I suppose it would still work.
