hood scoop

If i put a hood scoop off set on passenger side to vent on the turbo and exhaust manifold would it have a positive effect? or negative. If i did i would get a used hood to do it on keeping my stock hood. I'm visualizing something obious 3 to 4 " high and not low profile like most scoops. it would be closable from the cab , old choke type push -pull. has anyone tried it? i dont want to hear i"m crazy, thats a given, but i do want to know what effect it would have. robert
