About the inlet on the hood, perhaps that is where the Turbo is mounted and thus, the intake part of the turbo is positioned there.
In other words, I have witnessed race teams simply putting a mesh screen over the turbo inlet instead of keeping the stock intake piping and filter. It's just a Turbo sitting on the manifold with the only piping being on the outlet side. Who knows? But I think that could be the best explaniation.

Yes, we are taking orders, however, we are the only officially authorized dealer by Gialla Japan to carry the kits here in the USA. We are currently working with them to establish a US Retail Price (hopefully, it'll be less stratospheric than it is now....)

keep us posted on the price of this bad boy
Guys, guess what....the ENITRE shipping weight of the bumper, hood, and brake duct scoops are 34lbs! Keep in mind that weight includes packaging material (boxes, padding, etc.) The boxes to hold those things can weigh a total of 10lbs. if not even more! This is going to be one ultralight-weight bumper and hood combination!!!
Right now, we are negotiating a proper shipping method that will yield the best transit time vs. dollar. I'll keep everyone posted.

Okay guys....we will be announcing it here in the USA soon! MSRP will maintain the same as Japan at a 100:1 conversion rate....so that puts the CF hood at $1,300.00 and Front Bumpers at $890 with brake ducts and $630.00 for the bumper w/o the ducts. (I think that's right....) ....will confirm once again. But....the news here is that there will be no additonail "charge" ontop of Japan's MSRP.
this one is just a little different no side vents. But they have them in different colors
