Is the hole under the new scoop actually the same width? I was under the impression it was purely cosmetic. Yes, you could open it up underneath, but that scoop didn't come out on my model hilux...sleeper lol

Yes its purely cosmetic...hole is the same.
But there are options out there for a larger scoop that does work.
So what in the future plans for this thing Jap?
You actually gonna try and get this thing into the 10's or what?
13 sec passes are soo yesterday
