While visually I'm not so in love with the louvres, I do agree that they will provide not only some hot air extraction, but also as TG pointed out earlier, it will help a lot in reducing underhood pressure. This is a consideration with a light hood. We will also have to get some locking pins or those nicer AeroCatch flushline versions. Me likey them. Just a matter of finding a suitable area to mount the locking pins. Check 'em out. Neat huh?

As far as the front vent I want a nicer version of what is on the hot 924 turbo here. The ducting is optional and something I would look at doing afterwards. For the benefit of high flow through in a low pressure area I can't go past this. For the guys with big front mounts especially. Having the ducting concentrates the flow but also eliminates rain from getting in underhood as much. It would of course be much more presentable and also should incorporate a small lip around the front and sides which further increases efficiency.

NOPE!
I read the rest, but let me start here. 15 buyers @ 950.00 US$ is $14,250.00.
Never going to happen. For CPR to make this, it has to make economic sense. He's not looking for any profit, but that 7025 UPFRONT investment, from customers, is unlikely.
I don't think there is any chance of that happening.
That just isn't the economic nature, of the customer base.
So, perhaps we should find a proper compromise, that works for us all.
I like that fastening system, that you posted. I'd like to vent the IC and Radiator area. I know that louvers would be great to have, where Tony suggested.

Apparently you can make 968 mirrors cheapter than bosch, IT WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU COULD MAKE A BACK HATCH, SINCE THEY COST $1800 AND ARE A COMMON FAILURE.

thank.s
