ROAD/RACE Turbo Hood Vent

Some guys wanted to see what we like to do to our turbo cars. Hood vent lets a ton of HOT air out and looks great.

They are $69

It is listed on our other site

N/A guys can do it too. Reduces underhood temps dramatically. I call it turbo vent cause we really like to see our turbo guys install it.

Why not center the vent to release more heat straight off the manifold?

there is not enough room for the vent in the middle and it looks meaner on the side

if you use this as a ram scoop instead, and then get some washers to prop up the hood around where it meets the windshield, you could have a ram-air cowel hood (sorta), would let in cooler air and force the hot air out by the window!

Rock...how difficult would it be to do one of those on a CF hood? I really don't want to cut into it unless it will look clean.
