I wouldn't say so.
Anything which reduces IAT is worthwhile. It's might only be small figures but they add up.
My theory behind honda not installing vents as oem is that no other manufacturers were doing it at the time and in typical jap style the design was lifted from elsewhere.
If anyone can shed light then great.

Vented bonnets have a function,my car is turbocharged and produces a lot of heat,so a big mouth and a vented bonnet allow a lot of air to move through it which is what's needed,I would lose the bonnet in the blink of an eye if I thought the car would manage without it.

That's my point, it's a totally functional mod. You have to offset the.hassle with the benefit. I'm keeping mine for track only and using oem the rest of the time now.

It will look less awesome on the back of a flatbed with a shagged charger and hydro locked engine.
