Good deal, I've been looking around for either a spare OEM hood to do those cuts on or alternatively picking up one of the aftermarket ones I mentioned. I think once I toss the thermostat in I should see some good gains as well.

 

Yeah, the only reason I didnt go with the OEM hood cutting is because I dont want to worry about rain getting in right where my manifold, turbo and filter is. With the VIS I got rain guards and have already tested them in pouring rain with no issues at all.
