BTW: The ram air is NOT functional. And in order to make it functional u would have to cut thru 2 pieces of fiberglass under the hood and I didn't want to do that since it might weaken the hoods support. So instead I cut the back of the hood that rises up onto the winsheild and that gave it a cowl induction effect. I am sure there is a way to make the ram air functional though. The hood takes the air to where the old snorkel would have been. (On the sides above the headlights) If you could make like so sort of tubing to bring that air from there to the element, u could have ram air that way...but thats a long ways for air to travel kinda. I think the cowl induction effect on them ASCD hoods work better.

Look into Suncoast hoods though. I think they sell a kit that makes the hood functional. Look into them before u get one from ASCD.
