What he said. 
Cut the cowl and be done with it. Custom hood that began with a stock hood is going on mine. Pics are just a mock-up but it will extend to the windshield and slope back down. It wasn't worth spending the $ on the VFN just to cut it up and build on it.

I tried to make a custom cowl on stock hood, probably spent 60 hrs & $600, ended up looking like ****. (threw it away)
Ended up buying a VFN Sunoco pin on hood that extends to windshield.

(if you buy one, they them not to install the interior reinforcement in the cowl area)
I used Quick Latch push button pin fasteners for the hood (you can see the pins in pic)
All in All, I think the intake is great for $600 including the fuel rails

Street car, no. The reduction of vision, while negotiating traffic/pedestrians is irresponsible. Race car; only if NA. A pound or 2 of boost is a lot cheaper/easier than all that.

Had more to do with optimal gear ratio, which means making power to 8k (boost is always maxed out)
