The style that we are talking about?

They used to, anyway. Last I heard they stopped. But yes, insert and fill is the easiest way. Doing it without filler is the expensive way.

Yes, CS still makes the insert, I think they actually have 2 designs now. a V1 & V2.

I don't see them listed on their website anywhere.

Can't say enough about mine and it actually lowered the air intake temps by 10% after much logging..

That seibon single center vent hood looks like something im going to have to pick up

kinda new here..and didnt read all the pages but how about like the LFA with "A horizontal hood gap also feeds air to the engine and add 2 little rear vents if needed to release the air trapt under the hood.

That car had a lot of wind tunnel testing to make that work. Here, my guess would be you'd be packing air under the hood but bypassing the radiator.

I'm thinking of purchasing this but can anyone tell me the distance between the front of hood and the vent. I need to be certain that it is actually aft of the radiator shroud.

I have yet to see an installed picture of this hood. I am curious about this as well.

This is the only one I've seen but it looks like it is after the shroud/

1slow370 11-25-2013 02:54 PM

from measuring the picture and the stock hood it should be just behind the core support If i get it down the road i would probably put a different coolant reservoir on it to open up the airflow
