Looking for advise on creating air boxes fed from a duct on the roof. My car is a GT4R PCA race car( 2.8 liter) I have seen a few limited pictures of this on other 914 race cars and would like to talk to venders and/or customers who have been through this.
Thanks |

John Rogers in Sandy Eggo runs a small inverted wing all the way across the back of his roof panel. It sticks up only an inch or so, and curves down across the rear side of the roof. Pretty much just shoves air down toward the engine lid grilles.
He said it was one of the best cooling system mods that he made; getting cool air into the engine bay. Not sure if it did anything for power or not. --DD |
