EG5 Hood Scoop to keep the engine bay cool??

[Lukezen27]

Hey Guys

Anyone got a hood scoop on the EG's?

It gets very hot under my bonnet since turbo and my bonnet has warped.

Here's what I've found so far and installing one would cover where the warping is


What happens when it rains?

So if that's stupid question but I've never had a car with one before..

Cheers

Luke

adjust the rear of the bonnet up (near the windscreen) to leave a gap for hot air to exit.

Its a bit ghetto but very effictive
