If the GTS hood is functional. Go with that. The Cervinis' hood is just for looks. I have the Cervinis' single scoop ram air hood. Looks great, but it is non functional. You would have to also purchase a cold air intake. I have been trying to get Cervinis to make the ram air kit for about 2 years now. Gave up and bought the Intense Performance stage 3 intake.

For those of you who have the GTS hood....
Is it functional? The Cervinis one with the dual intakes says its functional. They say they have two different ones, a non-func. and a func. one. They both look sweet to me, esspecialy on your truck-DakUSA. :) Is the hood painted darker in front of the intake or is that just a shaddow? Lets keep the fight going.
So far GTS-3, Cervinis-0 and the new contender The Shaker-2 ;)

Yes it is Functional if you buy the functional one. Since it is such a new hood they are getting the intakes out now. They did a lot of testing on the intake. but you do not have to have it if you want to save money but you will love it with it.

Ok, just noticed something and while not totally on topic...
With the grill inserts that everyone has (and I am considering getting), how do you open the hood once you initially pop it from inside the cab?

KRG, there is a kit that comes with the grill that puts an extension on the hood release that makes it open the same way the Ram opens.

Made my own grill inserts and hood release. You can see it at-
www.dodgetruckworld.com/dakotaman4dr/
but more to the topic at hand, what about the Keystone hood? The one with the scoop at the front of the hood. I've seen them in pictures but does anyone have one and are they satisfied with it?

It really doesnt vent that much air out, after a certain MPH it pushes the air down through the vent.HTH
