The new "KS Tech" Hood Vent scoop delete...

[knucklesplitter]

I finally got around to revising my hood vent. The fit is better, it is now flush with the hood, and the opening is a little bigger. I still need something to pull the front corners down, but I'm working on it...

Looks pretty clean dude! You ever get the GC/GDA ones fabbed up, or just been spending all your time on your own car? :P

[knucklesplitter]

I wish I had more time, Cory. I'd have one for every model year by now if I didn't have kids and an inconsiderate day job. You should see my mailing list of people interested in these after all I did was post some pics on NASIOC. I think I will do the 06/07 next, then the 01-03, then the GC/CDA.

I've also been working on some many other "KS Tech" products. Some cool stuff coming out in next few months.

[tysonK]

You could make an evo one!

I think another company is already on that. I can't think of the name... it's something like Dee Essem or whatever. :P

You know, actually the Grillcraft mesh would look pretty good in the EVO vent. Hmmm...

[cody]

You made that? It looks good. The mesh matches the mesh in my grill.

[M3n2c3]

That's purty. Makes me wish I had a scoop to delete. :lol:

I'm just kidding, they come with them stock. well pretty much at least.

I'd of course rather have a custom one.

Nice. Is it possible you could let us know when if/when you make more before the NAZIocs? Ya know, cuz we're way cooler and stuff.

[wrxkidid]

yea let us know. does it change the efficiency of the ic at all?

i lied i spy fmic pipes.

[knucklesplitter]

Definitely for front-mount IC's only...

20 04/05 bezel frames have been ordered from a local machine shop. Grillcraft mesh is at the waterjet cutter. Gotta line up a powder coater. Pricing is not finalized yet, but it is around $200 (plus tax unfortunately for Nevadans).

See, Mr. Jonathon D. Jibber - Esquire... you heard it here first. ;)

I still need something to pull the front corners down, but I'm working on it...Did you get the corners sucked down? I think a precision light smack with a rubber mallet should shape them beautifully. :)

[knucklesplitter]

I <heart> preskishon mallets!

No, I added extra studs to the front corners to pull them flush. Looks like Subaru may have had fasteners there at one point, since there was a nice clearance in the underside sheetmetal for them.

The spoiler is the Subaru-brand "Euro spoiler", only available in Europe. I've never seen another US Subie in person that had one and only one on the Intarwebs. I looked into importing them, but it would be expensive.

[knucklesplitter]

The frame is out for paint. "Out for paint" meaning out in my garage being primed and painted. I'll post s'more pics when it is done. Maybe I'll even bring it to a meet is I can ever get these new huge-ass injectors to run decently... in all my spare time.:rolleyes:

Yeah, in some ways I do too, but I need a painted one for pics and to see how it looks. If I don't like it I have almost 20 others now I can switch back to.

BTW... I will probably be painting a few of these in WRB, powder-coat black, and/or Aspen white. Anybody want to do a photoshoot with one on your car?

[100_Percent_Juice]

[100_Percent_Juice]

Yes they painted the hood and front bumper.

[khail19]

I need a trunk and spoiler (that I already have) to be painted PSM. I wonder if they would hook me up with a deal, do you have contact info for them?

[knucklesplitter]

Yes they painted the hood and front bumper.

My post was very unclear. I meant that new custom vented hood of theirs. Did they match it to your paint for your car on the photoshoot?

[100_Percent_Juice]

Ohhh, Yeah the reverse hood I believe is getting painted to match my car, and then they made a carbon fiber one I believe. Why? Would you be interested in that hood?

[knucklesplitter]

The final version is painted and on my car. I am very happy with the fit and flushness now that I added extra pull-down studs to the front corners. The paint didn't match perfectly using just the color code, but it is close enough for this one. Mesh and a few frames are at the powder coater.

Man that looks nice! I need a turbo, and then a FMIC, and then one of them bad boys! :lol:

[knucklesplitter]

Have you thought about trying to tweak it to make a slight extractor out of it?
That would be futile considering the high-pressure area that the scoop hole is located at. I also prefer the flush look to the reverse scoops that are out there that don't extract either (I assume). I do want to fool around with some sheetmetal ducting underneath the mesh to maybe get some bernoulli effect going on.

[Kevin M]

I meant more by dipping the front of the mesh beneath the hood (or sheeting beneath it) but it all comes to the same since there is that high pressure zone there anyway.

[knucklesplitter]

I meant more by dipping the front of the mesh beneath the hood (or sheeting beneath it) but it all comes to the same since there is that high pressure zone there anyway.Yeah, that's what I want to try, but with sheetmetal underneath the mesh to maintain the flush look. I even though about extending the duct forward under the hood to try and find the airflow coming through the radiator. I've been meaning to duct tape up some cardboard to just see if any of it works. I use the hi-tech yarn test to see which way the air flows - tie some short pieces of yarn to the mesh and watch where it gets blown. :D

[kidatari]

Looks awesome, great work :D

[knucklesplitter]

I need a white and a black 04/05 WRX/STI to model one of these Hood Vents in powder-coated black for photos. FMIC is not needed, since it's just for pics. It takes 15-20 minutes to change a scoop out to one of these. Anybody interested or know anyone?

Probably... but he drives the car daily and tracks it like that. Says his IC is cool enough to put his hand on after hard driving, and it was never like that before. We'll see.

I am finding with the 02/03 design that having the scoop doesn't help too much. The scoop's fit onto the hood is not so great, but it doesn't matter for a scoop that stick way up. With something that has to be flush there is no way to get it right from the scoop. A hood is required. Check out what a guy off NASIOC ("Token Negro" is his name btw) sent me so I could do an 06/07:

[MPREZIV]

Nice! Shit, for a long time, the entire hood off my car (with the school bus print in the front edge) was sitting behing Nissan by the dumpster... They recently took it and recycled it tho.

[knucklesplitter]

Here is the next-to-last prototype of the 02/03 frame on Scott's hood. I'm adding corner studs to pull the corners down, and then it goes into production. The fasteners will be hidden on the final version.

There's a $50 minimum charge per job at the machine shop. So, I'm guessing he can't thread a little piece of steel for <$35 unless you've got 40 friends that need 'em too. :P

Also, Matt the more I see these things installed in pictures, the more I want one! I was concerned that the car ends up looking un-Subaru w/o the scoop, but I'm just not feeling that way when I see the pics. Lemme know if you want one on my car for pictures, I'll get it painted to match when I get my next round of body work done (whenever that'll be).

[sperry]

I didn't really see an answer. Perhaps it was, you are working on it, but slowly?
I think his priority order was: '04-'05, '02-'03, '06-'07, <='01

In fact, I think the '08 would be before the '01 too if you could even make one for the '08.

[JonnydaJibba]

I don't think it's possible. The scoop is integrated into the hood. Maybe a limited run could be made for the 3 of us that would be interested. Plus maybe some NASIOC members. I'll just keep hoping. I'm sure it's a handful with a lot of newer gen Impreza owners wanting these.

[knucklesplitter]

I didn't really see an answer. Perhaps it was, you are working on it, but slowly?Let me see how the 02/03 versions sell. To make only 3 of a GC version would be cost prohibitive. It costs me about $300 and 15-20 manhours of my time just to get the pattern right, and then they are fab'd in batches of 20 on a CNC machine. To machine a batch of say 5 would cost almost as much as to machine 20 (not counting material of course). Basically 20 is the minimum number I have to sell in order to make it worth my while and keep the price where it is (and plenty of NASIOCers bitch about that price).

And for '08+ I don't see how an '08 version is doable with the built-in scoop, but I'm open to suggestions. The WRX/STI hood is also steel in '08, so there in no weight advantage for an FMIC car to keeping it over a non-WRX hood except for the mad-tight-scoop-yo.

[JonnydaJibba]

That's what I thought. Oh well.

There's somewhere around a "Ga-Jillion" pre-'02 Imprezas on RS25.com that are running turbo swaps, and I'd say at least half of them are running FMICs. It may be worth your time to at least drop by over there and see how much interest you could drum up... Could be big $$$.

Aren't there more '02 WRXs than there are 2.5RS's of any year?

Edit, here's the numbers:

'98-'01 2.5RS total sales: 14,191 (http://www.cars101.com/impreza_archive99_01.html)
2002 WRX total sales: 22,910 (http://goliath.ecnext.com/coms2/gi_0199-904872/Subaru-of-America-Inc-Issues.html)

Chances are there's a much bigger market for the '02-'03 than the RS. If I were Matt, I'd wait to see how well the bugeye scoop delete sells before working on an RS version, unless he can get like 20 people that all commit to buying one on 25rs.com or something.

BTW: those numbers make JC cry.

[Kevin M]

Yeah, aside from the production numbers, the RS guys just aren't the type to drop for quality non-performance mods. If you made a crappy one that cost like $35 you could sell some, but stuff that's actually good gets about a brazilion posts of "I wish I could afford that." And maybe 3 or 4 buyers, ever.
