Ah reading back what he's said i see what Rick means no, am working on something for the brace at the mo.. But will keep them in mind.
Ah cheers for the pic.. Altho i have a mount bolted to those holes already so i might be ok.

If the pressure is higher than the pressure on the underside of the bonnet (likely) then the air wont flow out of the bonnet regardless of it being less dense. From what i've seen most automotive vents have a protective shield on the windward side and let the air exhaust towards the back which will be a much lower pressure. So if heat is a primary concern then it would be something to consider. I have been looking into fitting something over the winter after feeling the temp of the bonnet after a good thrash. Im looking at the Pulsar GTiR vents in carbon at the moment.

Tbh the vent would be for looks more.. As they'll match the wing vents. But being face down (pressed in) they do let air in, so they should* let cooler air in to the bay.. But my inlet temps arnt too bad (from the Rolling road day) so i'm not to worried at the mo.

lol how do you now? And are his chips any good? I don't want sh*t.



Oh a a old mod fact finding. The Ally rad keeps water temp down well, on the motor way the temp doesn't go above the 1/4 line.. and heats up in traffic slower than the copper rad.

yeah the chips from beardy good copies. he used the original eds chips also does evo 5 etc

i ve had a set for 2-3 years no problem

Will get you pics tomorrow to show you how i mean if you want?

Right Benn been looking at my standard top mounts and it would be easy. The studs will knock out of them easily then either tack new longer bolts in with thread pointing up or tack a nut on the underside and then put the bolts through from above. Simples.

Cheers Disco,

Cheers Rick, i have a plan i'm working on at the mo, but changing the threaded bolt over is something i was gonna look at if needed.

i have a bloke letting me no weather he can get some tomorrow, if not i will get some made !!!

Wish I was more mechanically minded then I'd understand your wip more. Anymore more photoshops needed lol
