Not worth it... i suggest not even trying or thinking about it any longer... unless you get a shaker. Which is basically a whole new scoop/hood mod.

Don't bother unless you plan on pluming it to your intake. And that won't work to well with the air box being at the front on the passenger side and the scoop hole will come out about the 1st quarter of the intake plenum. The piping is flat and restrictive.

Live with it or get a $haker hood which is $$$$$ for a look and so so power gains at lower speeds.

I think the Cervini Cobra R hood has air passages in the back that will let out some of the hot air from under the hood.This should help eliminate some of the heat soak from the upper part of the engine comartment. This will help make power better than trying to rig a ram air setup.
