Doesn't seem like it would do all that much. Hood scoops aren't remarkably efficient and it would be minimal air entering. You would be better picking up an electric fan or a performance radiator.

I just put one on my vert and it looks very cool. Here's the problem...
Water will run directly into your alternator which is not a good idea. It looks like it will get into the TPS as well. I ended up making an aluminum panel to cover up most of the opening on the inside (silicone and bolted in place) and left a small opening in the back so the water and air ends up near the firewall. Hopefully it works.
