    There is a low psi area. Either perforated mesh or louvers. I planned on using stainless mesh but am looking at louvers too. The area above the radiator between the engine where the fan is can draw air up. It was also suggested doing a cowl hood by placing washers under the hinge to force the hood up to aid in extraction.

    I installed the OEM hoodscoop few years ago. In order to keep it I am considering to do something like this:

    Or just an opening covered with stainless mesh.

    Then keep the hood scoop on top of that opening in the same position and do one of the following:

    Add vents to the hoodscoop ...

    ... or make an opening/cut in the rear side of it:
