Oak you info is in error. The air path runs thru your radiator and is heated as a result of the radiator/exchanger. Once slowed down and run thru the fan and a A/C condenser the air is vented and louver towards the outboard side of the fender. Again, the outward 5 louvers vent out to the wheel opening, not inward to the rotor..

the air passage is the same when the car is at speed. yes, the air is vented out the wheel opening not inward sorry if you misunderstood.

The air flow that you are referring to is heated to 200 degrees.. Versus ambiant air directed to the inner rear of the wheel well flowing across the rotor and caliper. The latter method occurs with the Sportec duct kit.
