Useful roof scoop?

[phunny]

Ok heres the deal, looks like I'm going to pick up blackspool's car this weekend and it has no ac. After some reasearch I see that some people have installed roof scoops. With the talons having black roofs I think it's possible to installed a very low profile 1" maybe, that can't really be seen. Anyone ever seen one?

 

[EriClipse]

Ive never seen one, but IMO i dont think it would look good either way. Im to lazy to refill my free-on so i just ignore the heat.

look into the subaru hood scoops they have slim pop up ones.

 

[joe sobo]

seams like that car is finally going to sell???????? this economy must be real bad cause that car is wicked

Please don't put a roof scoop on his... Ermmm... I mean that car. It's way too sexy without it.

Hmmm, that is a great idea. Maybe a functional roof scoop. That's something very unique to look into.

Aww Come On I'll give you some AC stuff man...don't hack that cars roof out haha.

There is only so many of those 2gb AWD Talons left. And That's one of them.

Anyway, it already has a functional roof scoop. Its called a sunroof.

 

[phunny]

OH I got it, I'll just install the sunroof backwords!

You know, I have all of the AC components in the garage

Hey Tom,
if possible can you have the information in my email for 9:00am? I'd like to drop it off at the bank so they can get it done quickly.

The honda sounds better than my 98 chevy metro

Haha at least you could close it when it rains.

Oops I didn't realize it was a 95. I guess its not technically a 2gb but I still don't want to see that awesome Talon get a hole hacked in the roof . I don't see how that would work anyway with the sunroof.

Sounds like great Idea to put the AC back in! All my cars have to have AC too...I know how you feel man.

Be a man. I live in NC and haven't had A/C in my cars in years. PA is kiddy stuff.

What's a useful roof scoop?
I've seen them on mid/rear engine cars for engine air, but I can't figure out a use for one on a front engine street car.

Just so I follow - You are questioning cutting a hole in the roof, then adding a scoop to help direct air into the cabin? Yeah, I'd reinstall the A/C before doing that. Or just roll the window down.

 

[LandoAWD]

I honestly think this had to be a joke...

 

[MOTOR-RX]

Please give him the AC stuff we do not need a Sti hood or roof scoop on a talon

 

[Doubleot]

I want those damn wheels!

 

[boostedjay32]

Im pretty sure you can get used to the heat... with the window down and you driving i would think you get some type of air =]

 

[rock1t]

Roof scoops are cool and all, if and only if; you are paul walker. But just wait till it rains! That will be fun.

 

[mavisky]

Roof scoops are semi-functional in rally cars. The air builds up higher pressure inside the passenger compartment than outside and helps keep dust and dirt down for the drivers. Unless you're planning on rally'ing that car I don't think you'd find a use for it.

Dont cut into that beautiful Car !!! that would be a big mistake , roll down the window , or put in a sun roof !!
