Are these thing really worth it. I’m not worried about the heat, but more curious if they are actually effective.

well its a good concept and it should work, but how much? who knows. Im sure it would lower your engine compartment air temp a little but you gotta figure there are alot of other components generating heat as well. As for quicker spoolup im sure your not going to feel it in ur pantz. looks like they are pretty expensive too.

Pros- Lower under hood temp, less radiant head danger, and potential for quicker spool.  
Cons- Only one I can think of is you may not like the looks.
