Default Functional hoods!

What is the difference between Ram Air hoods and Cowl Induction hoods, or are they the same?

Ram air rams air int o youre cold air intake. The cowl hood give incoming air a place to exit in order to keep the engine cooler and to make the truck look cooler.

Ram air is better for performance and gas mileagebut cost a pretty penny cowl just helps keep it running cooler.
