On my car, we modified the plenum so the intake could be rotated which allowed for the air cleaner and assorted sensors to be mounted below the decklid.

I'd be interested to see some closeups too ..

Your car is Varioram Andy? I thought it was a straight-up 3.6 pre-Varioram? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

First, I'd never criticize anybody for running sans a deck lid... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Secondly, your client could have simply installed one of these and hidden the V-ram under a set of designer suitcases. Seems to make sense... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif)

Seriously (now), I don't mind it...it reminded me of an old fat Vette "stinger" heading backwards. I like to see new things... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Marty - Is his hood scoop thingie designed mostly for downforce? I see only a small grill for what appears to be for a cooler on the leading edge. Interesting (cool) concept...

I checked out the rear trunk mechanism when it was at the Ventura show.
Basically simple re-creation of a BMW 2002/320i front hood brackets + related parts, then grafted into the 914's rear trunk area.
Clean and simple, has a Bold look too !

Raphael is named after Raphael Sanzio. He is the angry, aggressive and very stubborn one. It will not take much to get his blood boiled. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Race Inspired Photos: Body mods for this 914-6 3.6 were inspired by combining 50's, 60's, 70's race car styling & some more modern cars. Keeping the general shape of this 914-6 with some serious custom euro hotrod mods. Attached Image Attached ImageAttached ImageAttached Image[attachmentid=532
