remember the air in front of your cooler is stalled to about 15 mph....really how much lift can you have...the volume in my estimation is insignificant to lift..again you maximize everything on a clean sheet of paper..but you improvise within the parameters of reason on a retro fit to solve a problem.



Just what I was about to write ...

Also, the rear of the trunk isn't ideal as an air exit. It probably is better than nothing, but the base of the windshield is a high pressure area, so air will want to enter there. A hood exit can be a low pressure area if you put a lip at the leading edge. Wheel well exits can work too (cut a hole in the sides of the trunk).
