Haven't done much with the car in the last year besides drive it, but I took it out today and realized that I need to address the hood issues: heat trapped and excessive fluttering.
Up in the air between doing a Tiger Racing Louvered Hood with Aerocatch pins or installing Trackspec Louvers on my stock hood with Aerocatch pins.

Blackout the hood pins.

Awesome hood... but totally played out. lol
I really like the tiger racing hood, but something about it just doesn't seem to work for me. I think it might be... dare I say....too... "aggressive"? That said, I think if you could come out with a layout that is different and still looks good on the car (which could be tricky), the louvers might be better.
Just as a question, have you ever considered the 2010 GT500 hood vent mod? Would seem to be appropriate given your mods and I LOVE the look on this car.... and SERIOUSLY considered it for my own:
As much as I like the Tiger hood for a road course, you're not going to like the Tiger hood's ability to flex and crack paint, and you're not going to like the finish of the vents on the stock hood.
I'd do the GT500 vent.
Yeah - didn't think about the cracking on the TR hood... even the visible weave Carbon Fiber one?
I'm not a fan of the '10 GT500 vent. Was the ugliest thing I thought on both of my GT500's. Lol
Not a big fan of cowl's but I do like the Cervini Cobra R
...but I know you well enough to know you're not going to like they way they look tacked on...
I can't remember who it was that was making the one I wanted, but I thought it started with a "K"... I was inches from buying that hood.
You cut me deep. If you think the GT500 looks out of place, the other vents are going to look worse to you. They work, don't get me wrong, but I know you well enough to know you're not going to like they way they look tacked on -- they're very much function over form.
But yes, leave the race car hoods to race cars.
That sucks that it the heat extractor doesn't fit over the TVS!! Is that because of the 5.4 your running and height? I just can't believe that the TVS is that much longer than the M90 I am running... but I know you must have looked into it. Now I am worried about whether or not I can upgrade to a TVS.
Regardless.... the Cobra R was TOTALLY going to be the next suggestion I was going to make! I can't remember who it was that was making the one I wanted, but I thought it started with a "K"... I was inches from buying that hood.
I did just remember my favorite hood that is kind of hard to find is the 05-09 Saleen S281/S302 Hood
What about peoples thoughts on the American Muscle 13/14 vents?
But end of the day its a tacked on MMD part :-/
Blackout the hood pins.
