I can get you the measurements for my IMSA scoops but it is Dougs complete widebody kit. I don't know if the dimensions are the same. Here is a pic from a few years back:

Thanks that would be great, his website says they are a direct match so it should work. It's funny you're the one who responded because your build thread is the reason I'm asking. I'm looking for an air duct like you have that I can use to hook it up to the stock filter. I've found a whole bunch I just don't know what size I need.

The actual opening for mine ( I had to cut it myself ) is 3 3/4" across. At the outside edge it is 8 1/2" tall and at the inside edge it is 7 3/4" tall. You can see that the opening is angled downward and inward at the top.

As far as the ducting goes, I am using a dual outlet intake but you can just use a single if you just want to use the stock air cleaner. Here is the company that sells them. They also sell the 3" hose:

Edit to add, you may just want to get the hose from Ebay since you are only using it for intake so it does not need to be high heat:

Thanks again, the tubing is even made for tuner performance so you know it's good! How hard was it to attach the duct to the scoop?

For you it will be very easy since you will have the part off of the car. The duct has a large lip all the way around the outside so it can be trimmed to an exact fit. You can either use fiberglass to attach it or a 3M 8115 adhesive.....go with the fiberglass The 3M is about $35.00 per tube and about $250.00 for the gun. The only reason I spent that kind of money is because I needed it for miscellaneous parts throughout the car.
