How can you make a comment like that about ITB's and not have a clue as to why his hood is lifted at the windshield??...on a side note, this is the first civic I've seen do this mod, usually the SR Nissan guys do this and the like..

It sucks air from the windsheild down onto the engine, also causes a suction affect bringing the hot air out.

I thought the air horns would have interfered with the underside of the hood...

You could acheive the same thing with a small front chin spoiler like the ones from kamei for rabbits and golfs.
Here is a good example.

This car has the kamei front spoiler, that is designed to create a vacuum in the engine compartment at speed, forcing more air through the rad, and out under the car. The car runs cooler, and the hood closes.
