Peebee's first logical law: read the whole sentence, then comment... :laugh:
... a relief of under hood pressures and some "up-force" by letting the air that get shoved through the radiator escape out the top of the engine bay, rather than being forced down below the vehicle.
Think the key word is the "a relief of".... You seem to have missed that part, given you refer to the downforce (which is exactly what Dragoneye was saying the heat extractor will create additional downforce by allowing the air that passes through the radiator to escape, instead of lifting the hood (and thus inevitably the car) by bumping into it and not being able to go anywhere...
