some people have nothing better to do but post unnecessary stuff in other peoples threads. i like it when people try different things. i wouldn't even come to the gallery if everyone did the same crap. what would be the point of looking at the same crap everyday.
thank you for posting interesting chit

You're right, the strut bar is for looks. And the sticker is fake, didn't have any other use for it. 
Otherwise, nothing you said is correct If you didn't notice, the airbox has a wall built around it that keeps the hot air out. I watch tons of heat boil out the rear vent, since it IS above both manifolds almost directly. My scangauge confirms a huge drop in IAT and there is a significant drop in coolant temp as well. Do you feel better after posting that? I didn't create this thread to argue about or explain my modifications...

However, at speed, where and when it matters, that area is a low pressure zone. There's less significant pull of air from the engine bay (low pressure zone) to and from the area of your cut (another low pressure zone wile moving). There's a reason why Mugen, J's Racing, and Spoon placed their engine bay vents where they did on their respective designed vented hoods. It also happens to be the better place for those without aftermarket hoods to cut their hoods. But hey, you're pioneering here...what you're doing here is original (and of course hasn't been tried or discussed in the 13 year history of this car). Yes, sarcasm again.
Put the lid back on, then take a reading of temperature both at stand and then again at speed. Compare those temps to the what you get on the same day with the lid off. If you want cold air, get yourself an AEM v2, Mugen, or an MG racing.
Yes....I as a moderator come on a thread in the forum I moderate to bash members; especially seeing that I've been a member for close to 13 years and owner for longer. That's EXACTLY my intent, alienate the membership across the board.
If you didn't create a thread to argue about or defend your modifications, then don't response. In the gallery section, people will voice their opinions and thoughts about modifications done. It's the way of life here. I just happen to have stated some knowledge instead of opinion.

And is that wall diamond plate or something of that caliber? If so, you're hurting yourself with that. It just traps heat in.
