This picture is with the hood closed. You can see that there is atleast 1/2" between the bottom of the hood and the bottom panel which is more than enough to supply air to the airbox.

Not to rain on anyones parade, but you dont have to make your own. Those pieces of the BGRA are still available thru sponsers such as speed inc.

They don't sell them. The only portions of the kit that is still sold is the seal that seals the air box to the hood, the rain blocker and the little corner parts where the screws go that hold the grill

Am i missing something or is the first pic only showing just one of the ram air nostrils being used? Also wonder how/if this would fit my VFN WS6 hood.

credit card standing by.......

The funnels are not being made anymore, those were the main part of the BGRA.

The first pic only shows one nostrils due to the angle of the pic taken. Both nostrils are used. . .

The kits are designed to fit the OEM WS6 holes as they reuse all the existing holes once the baffles are removed (no drilling required).

The hit would work on an aftermarket hood as long as the underhood air outlets and design are exactly the same as the OEM hoods. You likely would have to drill the holes to mount the seals though since I doubt the aftermarket onces incorporate those into the design.

Default Hood

I have a 2000 WS6 and as far as I know the hood is stock, but how to you get that big hole in front of the air box? I Have no rivets there at all-like the pic has holes-I am guessing where the rivers where for that one piece, that you take out? Maybe I am missing something....
