There are some threads on it someplace. Was a pile of work for almost zero overall effect. The resulting vents were just simply too small to make any real difference.

C-West, T-Craft and Sard replacement garnishes are vented and still sold. It is still cheaper to buy a 2nd-hand set of stock ones and just cut them though... Quote:
Not too small of a difference. It's been a nice addition for the turbo crowd. Useless for the stock group though. It is still a good mod for anyone wanting to keep the OEM hood. The mod along with removing the rear hood seal and replacing the lower aluminum underpanel are really your only options. Quote:

I know that Lunatic used to have an FRS he used to track with functional fender vents. He said that he could feel the air be evacuated from the engine bay once the fans turned on. Since it is a high-pressure area, I'm not sure how objectively well they work, but the pragmatist in me think it probably helps vent some heat and pressure from under the hood. Go see Page 46 in this thread for some fender vents used by The Racers Line, Lunatic, and Jetbill: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/show...unatic&page=46 Last edited by Lonewolf; 11-28-2020 at 02:10 PM. |

Adding my two cents here. Ambient temps are from 20C/70F in winter to 50C/120F in summer so this may be the best test environment for heat issues.
Temperatures are absolutely fine during DD, stop and go traffic, and spirited driving. During a series of hard street pulls can just about get the oil temp to 100C/210F. All of this is with the Air Conditioning on at all times. On track however, oil touches 120C/250F after 5 laps (8 minutes ish) forcing me to do a cooldown lap or pull into the pits for 5 minutes. Basic engine setup: Avo Stage 2 turbo setup, built motor, 13-18psi depending on map, Redline 10W-40 oil. FMIC in front of radiator Turbo blanket Heat wrapping from turbo to midpipe Cooling setup: Koyorad radiator & high pressure rad cap Samco / Mishimoto hoses (rad and heater) OEM fans (Middle East spec fans seem to be more capable than other markets) Custom oil cooler with thermostatic plate mounted in cut open fog light area Custom vented hood Gold heat shielding on areas near headers Further parts installed but not tested: AEM Water/meth injection Water misting kit for FMIC and oil cooler (operating but have not gathered data) To me it seems the vented hood makes all the difference. During traffic I can literally see the heat haze rising out of the hood. Pictures below: |

That’s not a lot of airflow to your oil cooler. You should try something like this, at least with the exhaust fans, worked wonders for dropping oil temps.

He said he had oil overheating issues with that setup. But yes ducting (which doesn’t look like he has) and rear vents (which not sure if he has but is in the setup I recommended) would help. Still a small opening regardless. |
