A few years ago me and a mate tried it with a 1.8 carbed VW Jetta, took a headlight out and made a scoop direct to the carb. The idea being that the larger diameter of the scoop leading to the smaller diameter of the carb throat would increase the intake speed and therefore engine power.
It made one hell of a difference in performance.
The carb iced up almost immediately and the engine wouldn't tick over. :lol
