But is there any benefit to having a hood scoop if you don't have a TC/SC engine?

Surely it'd help a little, right?

It might keep the underhood temps down a bit. I suppose you could custom fab a ram-air to go to the hoodscoop, but why bother when CAI's will accomplish the same thing? Overall any benefit, if any, will be far outweighed by the cost.
