sooo.. long answer.. i have lived with a hoodscoop for a little over a yr now (factory rice on my sube).. it is kinda annoying for 3 reasons
1) it catches tons of bugs and dirt..
2) when i am in a tight parking spot it obscures the passenger side front corner (so i have to like.. sit up and crane my neck to see that spot)
3) kiddies start revving up their motors at stop lights and generally start driving like idiots in general when they see the scoop. i really don't want to be associated with 'those people'
if there was a way for me to get an aluminum OEM hood that didn't have that scoop and relocate to a more stealth front mount IC without spending a ton of $$$ i would so do it.
short answer... don't get the scoop
