We finished the modifications of the hood. We started with an original formula fiberglass hood. We are extending the snorkels forward over the nose about 1.5 inches, extending them back about 6" and making the snorkels thicker. We will relocate the existing factor holes to maximize air flow and distribution. The snorkels will be fully functional as we want to get more air into the engine bay to cool it because of the extra heat of the turbos.
Here are a few pictures of an original formula hood we used.
Here's the modified hood with enlarged and extended snorkels
