Unless the hood is ducted pretty much directly to the intake or over a heat source it is, as Nick put it, more for looks than function.
I'm thinking about getting the RRM vent. Do you guys have any suggestions on where to place it to get the most performance. I don't want water being a factor period but I want it to serve its purpose because my engine bay is way too hot.
I hope you make it look pro. Post a pic when you are done because if it looks good then I'll do it but has of right now I am leaning toward the RRM vent I just need some suggestions on where to put it.

ok i have accolade's evo 7 hood, i've modified the vent to actually be open ( and "glued" mesh behind it so no1 can reach in there.) and i've taken it tru the self wash bays and sprayed water right into the vent.
