Ambient Temperature Research with Force Induction

Great info. I figured that the vented hood and a larger opening in the bumper would definitely help. The problem for me is finding a hood that is not heavier

Great info. I figured that the vented hood and a larger opening in the bumper would definitely help. The problem for me is finding a hood that is not heavier than stock and finding the right shop to do the bodywork (and it look good instead of hacked up).

Yes, because of this, I am considering having vents cut into my stock hood backed by black mesh or something. I also do not like the necessity of hood pins with CF hoods.
