Oh, i agree, out the top of the hood is best, I just don't want to cut into my carbon fiber front hood.... I guess I'm just looking at the fact that just about all 911's (at least from a 964 and up) have the coolers in the wheel wells, meaning they obviously vent there.
I would think under the car would be the worst thing you can do: you are expanding the air and forcing under the car, creating lift. At 140 mph, my car feels like its going to take off! One colder day, I taped off the oil cooler and it felt soooo much better and more planted. Then again, I have actually the opposite problem that I can never get ENOUGH heat in the tires. I run 11' wide slicks up front, and the car is so light, I don't get them heated up. I'm hoping venting a bit of warmer air will help. We'll see.... See sixaddict? There are as many ways to do it as there are people.... |
