Trace an outline of the cake pan.

Cut a hole in the hood to match.

Use self tapping sheet metal screws to screw the cake pan...oooooops..hood scoop to your hood.

Parts:

1 Cake pan

12 self tapping sheet metal screws

Tools:

Saw

Screw driver

The performance improvement will be massive. But don't let a dyno result fool you just because it's the same before and after. It takes the air going at 88 mph to create the giant boost in power and most dynos can't provide that fresh air induction at 88 mph.

Of course this is all predicated on your ability to get your Hyundai up to 88 mph.................

Oh and make sure the open end of the cake pan..........ooooops I mean hood scoop is facing the front of the car. It's not a Trans Am.
