I have a question for those with a vented hood. Besides when you are parked or not moving, do you see any benefit to the hood? Has anyone tested to see if air is flowing outward of the vents while driving?

The reason I ask is because many times a vented hood is great when you idle but when driving a vacuum is created under the hood and to properly release air to cool it might not be the same.
