Thats what the vent is for :-) Means your car is in tip top condition, well all but that exhaust rattle and replace the wiper fluid when you get a chance

This thread made me chuckle a little. There are very few things that are on the Evo purely for aesthetics. Things like the functional hood vent are why I love my Evo!

I love staring at the heat wave coming out of the hood. I wonder if you can fabricate a grill so you can cook some steaks while driving.

Losing to one is no shame, they are dedicated performance cars. AWD+factory turbo equals a deadly combination. Like our Tokyo based friend said, challenging tuned GT-R's, Evo's, and Sti's is a great way to lose.
Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.

How can you blame them? Subaru is the best, everyone knows that.

I was out for a fun drive once.parked the EVO in the garage and went in the house to cool down a little myself. When I came back out, my son was cooking marshmellows over the hood vent! I chuckled and asked him what he was doing..... he says " cooking marshmellows dad! DUH!

hahaha, your manifold gets really hot no matter how hard or easy you drive it, that heat's gotta go somewhere. after your done driving pop your hood and i dare you to touch the manifold and see how hot it is.

 no thanks, done that too many times by accident.
Thanks for the replies! It's funny how paranoid I get over some things. Next, I'm going to get paranoid over the knock and ridiculous amounts of boost evoscan says I have.
