Do you want cold air provided to a custom intake system?
(the max has a stock cold air intake)
..or would you want the scoop to allow the excessive under hood heat a way out?
..or you can just slap a couple of non-functional scoops on to look good.

The answer to that question depends on what functionallity if any the hood scoop(s) would provide your car.

i think this is a good idea if it could ram air from the outside to the intake (aftermarket) considering its a shorter run then a true cold air it would be much more effective ...but if i was you i would SCRAP this idea and make a custom 4inch with 4->3 inch coupler it gives you 10whp on top of what a TRUE cold air gives you. so thats almost 20whp MORE
