Maybe it is an SA only rule but up until the new monaro came out the only way i could fit a forward facing scoop was to have it operational , ie have to draw the air for motor from scoop opening. Even then my engineer said i will be pushing it . So maybe i should send holden an email and thank them for that ugly setup on there cars cause it alows me to make mine look sooooo much better .

Over hear the people who right the safety laws dont like forward facing scoops no matter how small because they protrude from the bonnet and could cause damage to a person that flys over your bonnet after you nail them .
Yes its a pile of bull especially when you can go to a Subaru or Mitsubishi dealer and get a car with a forward facing scoop that is about 6 times bigger than a Cobra one .
