And here look at the bottom for "Stealth Hoods" for the lip around the vent. This creates the high & low pressures needed for downforce:

These are proven to create downforce @ 90mph, then again on the NSX under the front hood has nothing so airflow is not interupted.
yeah air is not going to move that freely through his engine bay... becuase it is just that... a housing for a motor... something that the NSX does not have up front... not only is the air going to move very differently, but he will also NOT be able to have suck an air recess like those hoods because it would hit his motor...
