Convette Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 So I had to make brake ducts for my car for the race, I made a buck and vaccu formed them. Since I have the buck and its pretty easy to pull more I wanted to see if anyone is interested in a set. I used rather thin plastic, but will be using thicker stronger material for the parts and fitment will be much better than these (first run pieces). Looking at $25 a set + shipping. You will still have to get your own tubing (2.5") and finish it off at the brakes themselves, but this will help get you there.http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w239/johnboy9788/20130312_122316_zps8365a961.jpg any takers?

dmyers151 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 For $25/set, I'll take a pair. I've always thought about doing this, just never found the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jszucs Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Might be a functional item to allow you to pipe air into an airbox for an intake too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Convette Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 ok. I'll get started on them tomorrow. Yep, I just pop riveted them in on the sides, held up just fine.

tankbob Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Might be a functional item to allow you to pipe air into an airbox for an intake too.If anyone does this let me get some pics, would you just go filterless? Or like an inline filter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoFab Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Feeling like this is a stupid question...but...what in your picture is the brake duct? The one just below the signal lamp, or the one in the air dam? If it's the airdam one count me in. Cheers,Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convette Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Airdam one. Sorry about that, I thought it might be a bit confusing.. The upper one (foglight) was origionally going to go to split air intakes, but scrapped that idea later on. Now they only look like intakes but are blocked off for aero reasons. It would be very simple to run the ducting to the air intake if you want would grab some nice cold air from the ground. Dont ever go filterless.

jszucs Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 If anyone does this let me get some pics, would you just go filterless? Or like an inline filter? optimal would be to build a box and vent into the box, then run the filter in the box and tube to turbo. Just be cautious to never suck up water doing it.

IDK if this would funciton like the bypass diverters they have for when there is suction if you should submerge an intake. I think it would help but I don't think it would keep you from sucking up water in a situation where it was submerged and there was suction. Just wanted to put it out there more as a caution, for those who don't realize the risk of running intakes like that. It's not really a dialy dirver type mod anyways.
