Aquatience of mine had an 01 mustang Gt and traded it for an 01 edge (he likes 01 models, weird...)...and wanted to know how hard it is to install the mustang gt scoop on a ranger? i know i read about it but im tired and dont wanna search, so dont bite my head off

and where is the best place to buy one? i saw a few on ebay...anywhere else and do they come with the honey comb insert like the GTs have? FYI, he dont have the internet so i gotta do the footwork for him...

also some pics would be great so i can show him...

 

no there not that bad half the time is spent doing the fitting of the grill cutting it. I will be taking pricture when I install mine in a week

 

www.explorerexpress.com

 

there cost $154.95

mine $35

it pays to shop the junk yards.

 

I think someone over at the old G-E had a printable stencil for the grill cutout. I'm doing that mod sometime soon.

 

^^^ robin for the 01-03 edge or 4x4 or "powerdome" hoods

 

^^^ Yea it is Robin I was going to do it but got very lazy!

 

mine is being painted as I type ya....

 

Hey Zach if you ever run by another one could you give me a heads up?

 

no problem

 

Gt hood scoop is one of the coolest things I have done. I have a how-to with pics in Word. PM me and I can email it to you.

 

mmmm ive always wanted to do this mod... still want to!

 

Wouldn't the indention(sp?) in the middle of the edge hood present a bit of a problem??

 

no thr grill in the whole for the mustang dips way down you have to spend time and cut it to fit takes some time but it can be done

 

I want I want!!!!!!! Did you buy your scoop off ebay?

 

no junk yard. ebay is like over $100 i got mine for $35 flat...

 

I guess I need to head out to a junkyard

 

For the longest time I planned on getting one, but I decided to hold off until I have HP to back it up.

 

its a fake hood scoop dont need HP haha

 

i was just gonna ask if it was functional, but i guess nevermind, lol. still looks good though!

 

ya i really like the way it looks but i like things to be functional someone sees that and then thinks you got some power and wants to race then you get smoked.

 

my buddy left out the "grille" in the scoop cut a hole in the hood and ducked it to run with his 302 in his ranger right on the filter but that truck is making masive power

 

must be nice. i'd definately wanna cut the hole out if i got one. i wonder if it would do anything to our trucks to have the hole cut out (to make it functional). i wonder if water or other crap like that would have a negative effect on it in the long run (like the long bad winters with snow and freezing rain and sleet and salt and blah blah blah)

 

you wont see any gains but about 3-5 hp with that like that our trucks dont need the much air on them....

 

Its fake on a Mustang GT too, but at least they're fast!
