Posted 04/11/14 10:30 AM Share Posted 04/11/14 10:30 AM The original pic is the slots I cut to draw more air through my oil cooler...I can't seem to open the other pics in this thread to get some ideas to keep my brakes cooler during supersprints though?..

Here's what I made for mine. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Inner fibreglass shroud to hub/enclosed circuit)Problem is it may be ineffective and restricting air flow to the rotors?For the 2015 season, I will be using pmu 335 fluid (always fresh so the dry 335deg bp is vaild)Also trying some proper floating rotors from Shockworks.Making the duct intake bigger as well.Brake pads will be rated a bit higher to 920deg.Problem always has been the brake duct intake with the limited space on the front of the intercooled turbos compared to V8's.Worse on mine as both foglights holes are already used up with oil/tranny coolers.Pics of my current set up below which will change again in 2015 as I try and improve it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
