i drew up some plans for mine, haven't made it yet. I'm going to build a box out of sheet metal, and channel it down the engine bay, so there's some through passage of air, and plop a cone filter right under the scoop.

I'm also thinking i'll get some metal screening (fire place style) and put that on the scoop, so i dont' get bugs & crap slamming into my cone.

Although it's been a year since I;ve seen anything, their have been photos and instructions of ways to modify the filter box to bring in air from the scoop. I think one downside is the noise - but try searching here and especially over at http://www.nasioc.com . lots of modders and tuners over there.

Stretched steel. It's the stuff they use to help hold plaster to houses (not chicken wire though...) I don't know where you can buy it... I just found a plasterer at some new track housing and asked him for a 4' x 4' piece of it.. then cut it to fit. Sorry I don't have pics.. but it looks good!
