Actually the VIS carbon hood I bought come ready so you can just move the oem hardware over to the hood and after making a few adjustments it closes nice and tight with No wiggle or play. Like I said in my first post my IAT's were about 10% more than my ambient temps so trimming the 4 inches of plastic on the stock bumper exposing more air to the intercooler and also going with a vented hood Iam down to 0 difference. And yes that is just cruising normally. I will do some more logging of stop and go to see how fast the temps rise and how long it takes for it to go back down next.... Forgot to mention the oil temps seemed to have dropped a few degrees as well with that formulation...

A couple people in Houston have tracked their cars with seibon hoods with no problems YET, but if you are getting into heavy track days I would highly suggest looking into proper hood pins. Mainly because they will be stronger than the factory units and safer for track use.
