I think if you are going to keep GT front bumper...I vote cowl hood.

If you are going to change the front bumper to 03-04 cobra...I vote cobra hood.

I'd vote cowl as well. They look better with the stock bumper.

well i am in the process of getting a 99-01 cobra bumper so the stock GT one will be gone soon. and soon i have plans for a little something that will create a lot of heat so the heat extractor may be good for that.

with the 99-01 Cobra front bumper, i'd definitely do the cowl hood. there are a few members i've seen on here with that bumper (with chin spoiler) and a cowl hood and it looks sick.

then there's your answer.

Although neither roots or centrifical blowers create heat while they are out of boost, so unless you're driving like a maniac, you won't notice much of a difference

i agree...

EDIT: i just noticed that you already have the cobra hood. why not mock it up unpainted to see what it looks like?
