    Hello,
    Is there a way to make the scoop functional on a 2016 Tacoma TRD Sport?

    Hood scoops were originally intended to direct air into a carburetor. Now they are decoration. What do you want the scoop to do?

    It would be really cool if a company made a functional scoop to airbox ram-air setup. Would definitely help with us adventurist and water fording.

    Get it set up like a WRX and mount an intercooler on top. Boom. Functional scoop.
