air intake scoop over the trunk

I cant seem to find the thread, but there was one that mentioned making a scoop similar to the 991 cup cars for the air intake. Was/ Is that made? Still curious about it.

Well, then it just depends on cost. Make them really pricey and you will sell 3. Make them cheap and you will sell 20. ;-)

Do you only reach out on this forum? I've noticed there is not a good place to capture the entire Porsche crowd.

I would. Is the fan under the rear trunk a push fan? would a scoop take away the benefit of the fan?

yep it pulls of pushes air down over the engine.

Allow me to throw a number in here for those who may be interested.
My FRP side scoops sell for 400. This deck lid would come in at the 6-8 hundred dollar range. Now if you put your name on the list there won't be a great shock if the piece does be one a reality.
