The opening in the bottom of the hood appears to match the window in the CAI intake lid. I bet their "special lid" is a regular lid that has had the window remover and had a big fat weather seal added in its place.

I can't imagine that doing both the race scoop and the hood would have much benefit over doing just one or the other. I would use the race scoop for air induction and get a hood with some heat extraction function. I think the race scoop would be more effective for induction since it is out front away from the hot engine bay and the hood sits right on top of it absorbing all that heat plus the heat from the sun.
