My biggest cooling gains came from ducting. The fallow air in the fenders impaired the capabilities of even a pair of good oil coolers.

A high-volume fan (like the 964 2-speed fan, set at the higher speed), and even a later-style cooler from a 964 or 993 (if you can find the room) is a good idea. David Griswold has had good success with these.

But ducting -- a clear path in, no way for the air to go but through the cooler, and then a clear path out -- makes the difference at speed.

No amount of air is too great:




I consider my car to be a cool-air vacuum with an engine attached.
