As Adger said opening size is very important .
Height of the scoop is very important also in allowing air flow to" straighten out" ,so to speak.
I found significant gains in this area over the years on my and customers cars.
Also the larger the scoop the more areo drag
Years ago I had a SS/AMX type scoop on my Modified/Production Javelin , the car picked up a tenth by turning the scoop backwards .
