Here's the prototype on Randy's car...

...the production version will be a little different, but accomplish the same thing.

Here's a little closer shot of the prototype...

...like I said a couple posts above, the production one will look different. Last I heard, like the DFIC scoop turned backwards, unless Peter changes his mind again.

Okay, it is M7 .

They said they would have some in 3-4 weeks , so I would say two months.
I think the concept makes a lot of sense with the DFIC . I am thinking
about getting my chrome painted body color at the same time.( why did my type just change?? How can I change it back )

Minjae, didn't get it. But since you failed to pay attention, you have
forfeited your prize money

Looks like you need a special DFIC hood. The rear vent doesn't get along well with the MCS's central bulge. If that were flattened out everything would look better. Make it out of carbon fiber with built-in scoops.

Peter and his gang of JPL Lab scientists haven't come out with the usual wizz-bang stuff they used to consistently produce.

I need a new M7 fix.
I need more Cow bells!

I need to switch to decaf.

I'm sure JS will do a good job...

Here's a different view...

Would work on a non DFIC too if it was pushed further back up the bannet so it released some of the Manifold air rather than helping suck air through the DFIC, as thats not required ona TMIC
