I think the look could be refined some, but functionality is the key. Especially for track days, not drag either... I am always interested in folks designing and fabricating their own stuff for functional reasons. I would look at rexpeeds ducts and use that as a basis. They direct the air to the oil cooler and also have the smaller duct that can either be directed to the brakes or possibly to your intake.. Good luck and great start

 

I don't mind it. Doesn't look too bad in my opinion. I'm sure they can be refined a bit.

It totally reminds me of the cf ducts that come on the authentic Gialla bumpers from Japan.

 

thanks guys for all the feedback... i'd like to hear more... and yes i'm trying to get the looks refined to give it a more aggressive stance... it is functional but i want it to look good too...

 

To me, its just an added bit.....I doubt that its that functional & if it is, you'll never know.......I like your wheels though & interested in the specs & I want to know where the pics were taken ? Peace =)

 

wheels are ce28 chrome. Just that they're dirty cuase its been raining heavily in my country for the past 2 weeks. 17 x 8.5JJ... offset i forgot... =P. upload a cleaner picture of them for you

pics were just taken road side..

 

Are you routing a some kind of a tube towards the intake? If yes can you post pics how you got around the ACD reservoir?

 

Exactly how functional is it? How much researching has been done, and has anyone actually proved that it helps?

I dont search much, so you wont catch me doing it.. BUT.. I dont see evos running around with dryer vents hanging out the front trying to funnel air to an INTAKE that is surrounded by it? Personally, brake cooling ducts and oil cooler ducts (things that help get air to places that need just that LITTLE bit extra help seem logical.. But this, and the headlight mod seem totally goofy..

So me data, graphs, temp readings, flow rates, and any other empirical data showing its a good idea, and ill finish building my head light mod..

 

To the OP:

Not to get off topic, but what front lip is that? and is it once part or 2?

 

With it being refined maybe body color i think it would look cool.

 

x2 interesting front lip u have there...

 

looks bad

if its actually functional i'll talke back that statement

 

its a add on to the original e9 front lip... interesting meaning good or bad? haha...

 

Who makes it? or is it custom built?

 

its done by a local company that just started and is designing new aero parts...

website isnt even complete yet... but the lip is available for sale... just in case anybody's interested...

 

i like the ducts..looks good... carbon or painted!
