Placement of the vents does not necessarily remove heat. While heat can escape over the turbos at idle it won't necessarily while moving.

Someone would need to do a test using string to see how air flows over each hood. You would also need to monitor temperatures at different areas under the hood.

As far as I know nobody has done any real tests on any of this. It would be awesome if someone had a hefty stack of spare hoods and some free time .
