Yes, the scoop occupies the space where the factory washer tank is.

Chase, I see a washer relocation for the Roto-Fab intakes, but I'm not seeing them for the CAI brand intakes. Do they make these? Do you guys carry them?

Roto-Fab makes a take for use with their intakes, we manufacture a universal washer tank relocation. It is available on our website but due to vendor rules I can not post a link.

I love mine! I have the aeroforce interceptor gauges and I did a little test, since they read intake temp. I drove around with my scoop blocked and then drove around with the scoop free flowing the air up into my CAI INC intake. Noticed the temps were much lower with the scoop flowing, so it definetaly sends nice outside air up to the intake filter

Glad to hear you are happy with it.

I noticed it on the freeway at 60 and above. This does work some. When I had my v6 I had an airaid cai and noticed it a little. When I changed to an Ingen cai I noticed a real difference and more growl. I mention this as the Ingen tube runs down to the same area as the scoop is pulling air from that area

You definitely notice it most at speed once the ram air effect gets going. From a launch it comes on around 3500 rpm.

How would this work with the JDP brake duct kit? Would some customization be required?

You should be able to route the hose for the driver side brake duct right next to the scoop to the grill. No problem whatsoever.

I know that these dyno results are from Ted Jannetty and the scoop you want is from Apex, but i'm going to go ahead and say that performance wise, there's probably not even .1 hp/tq difference, they're all incredibly similar. So here take a look at this:

Between the different scoops available you are not going to see much difference in performance. You will see a major difference in quality though.

Is it safe for me to assume that the installation instructions are the same for the 2014-2015 2SS as they are for the 2010-2013?
