[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 16507854, member: 9628"] Oh, that is a different story.......If the plenum is there, it would be up to you. Fresh outside air to an engine intake is always nice for performance. I will mention that the Super Snake hood is a "fair weather hood". Unlike the GT500KR hood which had ducting in the R/A and Heat Extractor areas for water (rain etc.) to be directed, the Super Snake hood will allow water to flow directly to the CAI, if R/A functional and the heat extractors will allow water directly through to the engine area. If a person has a nice engine compartment, water does not play well with aluminum and metal that is not coated or plated. Actually, if the CAI holes are not there, and the rear of the scoop area is open into the plenum, and you do get stuck in rain, water will enter the scoop and plenum area.....where will it go? Definitely do test fit that hood before spending any money on it for finishing.......Just to verify the fit. R [/QUOTE]
