Took this the other night at a buddy’s shop. Very nice dude that owned the super clean but higher mileage Sonic!

Those new vents are going to really help to exhaust the under-hood heat. Nice! How large is each opening on the long portion closest to the windshield?

You know it actually hasn't dropped my temps. I thought it was going to as well. The vents are opened up quite. Each opening is probably a couple inches wide. It's those Track Spec hood vents. I think to see a temperature drop you'd need some sort of vent near the windshield.

I have those Track Spec Hood vents on mine, they don’t reduce engine operating temperature they just reduce under hood temperatures and reduce pressure at high speeds that would cost the front end to lift. They may prevent or slow down heatsoak on superchargers. Even though my exhaust hot side is ceramic coated and the turbos are blanketed, I can see a lot of heat coming out from under the hood when I pull up to a stop.

Thanks Glenn. I'm going to have to make it pull a little harder soon. My buddy picked up a Hellcat Charger and the race didn't go how I liked.
Lol, you know that's a never ending battle when you try to remain the fastest.

I'm happy with just spirited driving these days. That's why I still have that dinner plate on my Cobra.
