One thing I read is that when the vehicle is travelling, the body creates an airfoil around it and that the pressurized airflow is actually about 2-3 inches above the hoodline. This means that your hood scoop would need to be at least 3 inches or higher to have ANY effect. Otherwise, you are actually operating in a vacuum.

Fun stuff, ain't it?
