Very very very Originally posted by RogerB: Actually, unchannelled airflow into the engine bay via a scoop could make the engine run hotter, as it will decrease the pressure differential across the radiator, resulting in less airflow/cooling of the engine coolant. You need a sealed duct system from the hood opening to the airbox. I never thought about that... Is this true and verified or just theory? Ask Terry Haines. Function before fashion.
