So, you marinated it in truck bed liner... How long do you bake it before it'* edible?

Good idea, by the way. May be able to do something similar with some ricer tips....

Air dry for an hour, bake at 170 (lowest setting on my oven) for an hour.

Here'* a couple more shots at some ideas (offset nipple in case things get tight in there, blankoff plate for the back....new tips......etc:

We're kinda at a standstill without measurements, since my tips haven't arrived yet...

There'* enough metal behind our bumper i think a further rear exit for the SE might be required....

These scoops will be very low on the SSE/SSEi, Turtle. I won't be parking 'over' curbs any more.

BTW, one side will feed the CAI, the other will cool the SC. Trying to figure out heat extractors next.

how about for cooling the SC you make something to fit over it and the air then goes through another tube and exits by the back manifold? Like a cover for it.

Hmm, in terms oh heat extractors, could those be hood scoops facing the other way? I think someone was gonna try that this summer.
