Isn't there also a Suncoast hood with functional ram air? I know this hood looks like it is capable of a ram air setup.

(Not my car, btw.)

Also, i think i recognize that car and backdrop, looks like one that was in like a GHP mag, in the back with the readers rides. Never liked that hood, thought it made the car look dumb, especially with the HUGE spoke 97 C5 wheels!!!!
