They come with the necessary hardware and instructions. As with all ROUSH products, the Hood Heat Extractors are manufactured in-house and were designed using original manufacturer CAD data for superior quality and optimum fit. ABS is lightweight, durable, heat resistant, and impact resistant. Designed with rearward-facing openings, each notch in the surface creates a small low-pressure aero zone to help release heat. They are molded raw black and allow the release of heat from the engine bay. Standard on all ROUSH vehicle packages for 2018, ROUSH Hood Heat Extractors are the ultimate addition to the hood of your 2018 Mustang GT or EcoBoost! Hood Heat Extractors add an aggressive touch, and are fully-functional.

The ZL1 came stock with an extractor hood. You show a 5th Gen Camaro in your picture. When this happens, the lift is greatly reduced and the car can remain more stable at higher speeds. By using the extractors in the hood, the air has another direction to go, that being up and over the car. This can provide lift which will be a detriment during high speed driving. Under normal circumstances, the air flows through the radiator and then under the car. There is another reason for pulling air from the engine compartment besides reducing heat, though. Here is a picture of what the hood extractors look like on the '03 Cobra:Īnd here's the underhood section so you know these are actually functional: While this is not completely scientific, I think it proves the point that the extractors do remove quite a bit of heat from under the hood. That is a lot of heat escaping from the engine bay. I stopped at a gas station, engine off for 2 minutes and hood vent air temp was 167.8F. At each light or intentional idle it would rocket up to over 150F. This pattern was consistent, while driving the air coming out of the hood vents was 85 within 1 F up or down. These performance and heat extractor aftermarket hoods are made to be a replacement for. Then another stoplight 45 seconds, temp went to 146.5F. Gives your car a winning race look Custom-made for your vehicle. At a stoplight for 30 seconds temp shot up to 103F, rolled another two blocks temp down to 85F. After 2 minutes driving a 30 mph temp was 85.
I clipped the sensor right to the middle of my right hood vent grill. I also took time to measure another temperature, hood vent air temp. He did measurements from different points of his vehicle (underhood and in the air box, as well as at the extractors). Those who know what the 03-04 Cobras are made of should know these are absolutely solid car, awesomely built, worth tons of HP/TQ. To substantiate what I'm getting at, I found a guy who measured temperatures associated with his '03 Mustang Cobra. To directly answer your question, though, yes they do provide an amount of cooling by removing the air within the engine compartment, which can become quite hot during any kind of usage, whether traveling fast or slow. Only when there is a low pressure area above the hole in the hood will there be any extraction of air (and possibly heat).
As I discussed in this answer, the way heat extraction works is via the venturi principle. It really depends on the design of the hood.
