Well, it's been quite a while but I thought I'd share

Glad you brought something constructive to the table. When it's you're car, you can modify it anyway you'd like and do whatever your little heart desires, but while it's my car I'll do whatever I want with it, regardless of your opinion or criticism. I don't know if you actually track your car or are just a bench racer that can tell me everything he's learned from the internet and magazines, either way I don't care. I don't see any Ferrari's, Bentley's, etc. in your garage, so your opinion means nothing to me. So, until you actually own any of those vehicles, thanks for nothing.

You drive a NA civic and you're trying to sell the idea that you did that to your hood for racing or some other mechanical purpose. If you like the way that gay shit looks then just own up to it. Quit making excuses. It's not for racing and serves no mechanical purpose what so ever. It looks dumb as hell. You insult the intelligence of anyone who enters this thread by saying it's for any other purpose than aesthetics. So far you have two people in this thread, including the guy who posted directly above me who are buying into this nonsense.

Just because my car is an NA civic, has no relevance to anything. The engine still produces heat, like any other and that hot air can be released from there by venting. Being on the track and constantly pushing the engine throughout the rpm range, will produce a lot more heat than daily driving. As I currently do not have a vented hood, this is a cheaper alternative.

Please stay out of this thread, if that's all you're coming in here for. It'll be much better without your negativity.

What tracks do you run at? Never got that answer. lol Just curious where you run at down there.

That's a Miata though and the intake is right there. So of course intake temperature is lower. In a track situation, I don't think the results would be as great for the engine bay temp. It may help, but other vents in better locations would release hot air faster in my eyes.

It's your car, but it's just one of those things that's sort of pointless unless you're REALLY tracking your car frequently and need that small amount of gain.

actually a lot of NA civics with k-swaps have to run hood riser because the motor simply doesn't fit.
I Don't see why it bothers you so much, it's his car let him do whatever he wants.

When i walk through my house, if i saw a cabinet door open or a faucet running, id instinctively want to close it. When i see a car with it's hood not closed, i get the same effect. I thought riding around with your hood open was only something house wives did after they tried to check their oil and forgot to close it.

I can tolerate the (lack of) style, but dont piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. The kid pawning it off as a performance upgrade is insulting to people's intelligence.
