That's about it!What I took away from @TexasRebel 's post is that you want restricted air (coming in through VelossaTech for example or in your case sealed passage) and then some amount of it escaping through the hood vent. Reason being is that if you just have air that's coming in and not being used by engine just sitting there it will get hot.
At least that's my understanding.
The trade off is pressure for temperature. Heck. Without any empirical data it could be a wash... my theory could be backwards... I could be spot on... if someone has the time and means it might be worth collecting data.
Keep in mind though, on a stationary dyno, the ram/restriction effect is only as strong as the fan blowing on the radiator.
Does anyone have a dyno in a wind tunnel?
