I presume if the APC in Behemoth is under the rear seat then the area above the NSF wheel will be an empty hole, perfect for a cone. http://www.netma.fi/jouko/saab/ shows how to do it under the performance section. This crazy guy has a computer in his Saab which does some engine monitoring. I can see the cogs in Carl's brain going round ... Carl (I'm grinning mate, so don't flame) - why not go the whole hog and cut a hole in the bonnet to house the cone behind a scoop. Couple that with a big bore exhaust, an atmospheric dump valve and a massive amplifiication cone around it and you'll have yourself a Scoob killer :) Boooorrrreee ... Phooosh ... Boooorrrreee ... Phooosh ... It does scare the hell out of cats. Paul
