Default Air scoops

In BMW naturally aspirated V10 M5 & M6 world there is often debate on whether to add air scoops behind the front grill, to catch/force more air into the airbox.

Without going into the MASSES of detailed threads about their effectiveness or not, I have noted that there is simply nil suggestion of any such similar mod on the Audi NA V10, to squeeze any possible extra BHP out of this wonderful engine.

Any comments? Reading the intake manifold spacers thread prompted me to post this thread.

Just to qualify, I do have some bright red scoops fitted to my M6! At very high speeds I 'may' have noticed a difference but actually only fitted them because I think they look amazing! LOL
