The issue seems to be the amount of coolong airflow getting to the rotors. Anything you can do to improve the flow should help.

You've got PCCBs? Why aren't you joining our suit against Porsche AG and PCNA? See my posting under Calling All PCCB Victims.

XspeedFreakX,

You might find with these that the hoses split after a fairly short time, as the duct end is attached to the disc area and then obviously the hose allows it to twist or swivel. You might find the cup car scoops a better bet, although they may scrape the floor occasionally. Still they are cheaper than these flexi ducts and will last a lot longer i think. The cup car ducts need a quick modification to fit.

Regards,

Steve
