    Thanks. I like the look of the ones I saw.

    Oh well, another thing to add to my checklist. I'd be very concerned about either situation, but an actual intake could compromise the structural integrity of the hood.

    I hadnt thought about it but the insert already has been seen to get stress fractures and cracks, compromising with a hood scoop may even make it worse.
