Mine moves so much I actually pulled over to check it was properly secured.
I don't really want to drill into my new hood, but wonder if anyone out there has installed the Verus (or 86CUP) hood vent and recorded how the hood behaves before and after. I wonder if the hood would still shake this much in turbulent air if I were to install a good hood vent.
Your thoughts?
I've had the car up to the limiter without issue. It flaps, but I wouldn't stress. Add aerocatch latches if you want some extra security.
