You’d probably want the scoop near an air to air intercooler… which you wouldn’t want right on top of the turbocharger as configured in the patent. Scoop fed, top mounted air to air intercoolers tend to suffer from heat soak more than air to water intercoolers, so you would want to keep a little distance between the intercooler and turbos. I suspect hot v turbos tend to use front mount intercoolers.
