Duct Prototype



Front of the car with the bumper removed. The radiator doesn’t seem to get much high pressure air even when stock. You can notice the pattern on the radiator flutes showing where it picks up airflow.



I stitched up my bumper nice and good, with a few holes that need patching. I cut the lower grille out and made a duct out of coroplast to fit inside of it.



To fit around the bumper properly, I went with a curve instead of a straight angle. It expands in height while shrinking in width. The curve might be too steep.



I don’t think there’s gonna be any chance of me making proper ducting at the rear of the radiator. This engine bay is just too packed.


Will update as I make progress. Going front to back.
