Default Bugeye race car underbonnet cooling

Advice please: I'm running a twisted turbo and front mount intercooler set up on my Bugeye race car build, I need some ideas on under bonnet cooling/venting/airflow, will a mesh vent in place of the scoop be enough or should I be adding additional vents to the bonnet? Pictures of how other people have done it will be great.

I don't think it's that simple, unfortunately.

There's a great book called "race car aerodynamics" by a chap called Simon McBeath. It's quite accessible IMO, and it will point you in the right direction.

It's 16.24 on Amazon for the Kindle version, or 37.50 for the paperback.
