Seems to work well. I vented out of the fender. If I still need exit air I can add a little Turbo fan. But 210 temp puching 4500rpms for 10 min up hill in 4th is good for me.
My car is a euro car and did not have rubber plugs to push out in front, So I only cut open three plugs from the front section. Attached image(s) |

Yes I run the Throutman that has a real 911 type thermostat.
You can but the stat is a much safer way to go. |

This is without doubt the *sexiest* 914-6 I have ever seen.

I really like the venting location. Subtle, and I would expect at least as effective as holes on the inner wall of the fender well.
Can we see a pic of the front? Where did you route the oil lines? -Josh2 |
