Front Brake Cooling

[reesestewww]

Im ready to invest into a front brake cooling kit. Is there a hands down supiror kit? Any advice or pics would be great.

Thanks

OG's kit is fiberglass with 3" hose fittings, AJUSA's is aluminum with 2.5" hose fittings. I think they're comparable in price as well as performance. I've had both and they do the same thing. Take your pick.

Where you get the air from is debatable. Some folks use the A-arm scoops (as I did for a while). They work okay, especially if you want to keep the car stock looking.

If you don't mind taking the foglights out, you can mount ducts at each of those locations and get even more air. I went with this method, using both the stock valence, a custom made one (from stock parts), and now a Ruf style f/g unit. I also made some A-arm manifolds (a la Smart Racing) to keep the hose from getting torn up from tire rub.

Do a thread search and you'll find a lot of info.

That paint is waaaay too pretty to be on a track! :>)

FWIW, I have the OG kit ducted to the holes in the front of my IROC front bumper. Seems to work fine. I was a little suspect of the fiberglass pieces, but it has held up fine over the years.
