Looking at two different hoods on AM. One is the GTS-4 hood and the other is the Cervini's ram air concept. My issue is the GTS-4 hood may not clear the ram air kit that will work with the Cervini's, but I like the GTS-4 lines better than the Cervini's straight edges. Both have functional heat extractors. I've emailed AM about the GTS-4 to see if in fact the ram air kit will or will not work with it, but wanted input on here as well. Would it be better to go CAI and ge tthe hood I want more, or is the ram air kit that much better as far as sound, etc. I know neither one give incredible gains over the other, so I guess it's more my preference. Here's the links...

I have the first one, there is an issue with rain and the heat extractors, so im going with a cobra R hood soon; however I do like it; just not with my overall design (that and I got it 3rd hand and it was poorly painted, people want more than a pre-painted new hood; The first one has the ram air kit built in, no need for that kit, however if you are looking for HP gains, this isnt the route Don't forget hood pins

Thanks! I didn't even catch the built in portion. So probably a CAI will be the way to go for wanting more CAI. The rain part scares me a little, as well as washing. I do park in the garage at night, but during the day I'd be out in the open.
