    Also, if it's facing forward, & it's raining HARD, you're gonna be sucking water into the intake...BAD!

    But if it is facing backward and raining hard, it will drain into it... Right? I'm am just guessing though... Hmmm... I will have to research this now...

    my personal opinion is...if your going to go crazy enough to make a roof scoop...go ahead and use the big one!!! i like the WRX style one on top...

    gonna be the craziest looking VX around!!!

    be careful with moisture inside the cab, mold can be a bad thing for your personal respiration!

    prefer #2 too, and i think you should paint it black so that it matches the hood

    I like number one.

    And I do have to say, wow, I am looking forward to seeing this done.
    I would like to see more details of where and how the hose will run back to the engine bay from the roof.

    Pura vida costie.
    Costie I don't think is a good idea about the impreza scoop,however don't you like the 4runner sport scoop ? I think is the best & better looking scoop out there for the VX.You can find one on ebay for $ 50 with shipping included.Again costie,a scoop over the roof will deffinetly kill the VX's aerodinamic design,plus the A pillars are bit narrow to run air ducts thru though.However I strongly believe that this project shall be handle by professionals for better advice my friend since none of us ever did that sort of mod,but persnally I wouldn't encourage you to do that
