arent you supposed to NOT pop the hood?
i thought you just spray it through the front grill into the engine bay, since opening the hood will feed the fire a ton of air.

plz correct me if i am wrong

There's just no way to get a good spray into the engine back from the front grill. You have the radiator, then the ac condenser, and I have an intercooler in front of all that. Just going to have to burn your hand to get that fire out.

Edit: come to think of it you'd have to either hold the hood open while you spray or have the presence of mind to put the hood prop up. Looks like one of those pressurized units to hold up your hood would make things faster. Either that or get a full installed system so you can just press a button to release the stuff.

Not if you have hood dampers!
