I was wondering how the pair would look on Grey, I think it looks good. Any reason why you went for those rather than the inner pair?

That is the long/large "inner" pair...just positioned to the outside. Ignition coil cooling and not opening up the middle of the hood is why I wanted the outside positions only, but using the larger vents.

Good thinking there @Vracer111.

Has anyone with forced induction, especially those that can reach the limit of the stock water radiator, tested this on track yet? Im curious how it affects the water cooling but also intercooling.

We bought a thermal image camera for use on another project we are releasing soon and I did a quick video of the hood louvers working over time on my Full-Race turbo kit.

Really short video, kind of neat how much heat is escaping the louvers.

We had a customer ask us to design some for the rear of the hood even though it is a much higher pressure zone. So far, with the wickers in place, it is evacuating air from under hood as well.

May not be everyone's cup of tea but if enough people ask for it we can do a small production run of these as well.

Thanks,
Eric

Are the rain guards very visible through the vents? I'm wondering how well they would show up if custom painted. It seems like they would based on the photos.

@VeloxEric those look awesome-I think they should be offered.
