    and not to get too hard on you but learn how to speak english. I know it's not proper to correct in red because it's a "mean" color, but hell I'm not a teacher.

    The new street kit. Not only was it more in my price range but it leaves the wheel options open too. It works so well I think I'm going to have to re-install my ABS though, on the track it will probably be ok but on the street I tend to lock up if I panic. I wish there were less raccoons around here...

    In regard of brake cooling, the ducts should not only bring air to cool down the rotors from the center with a radial dispersion, cooling both faces equally (you don't want a cold face and a hot face), but also it cools down wheel bearings and makes them last longer.

    If you don't track your car or live in the mountains (loosing your braks going down a steep hill ain't fun), then you don't need air ducts, they can even have detrimental effects on your brakes by not allowing them to warm up.
    Based on the quality of the kit I just bought from this man I would listen to pretty much EVERYTHING he has to say...

    Yeah I got the PM. Did you really need to bring my attention into a thread like this?
    Asubimmer has experience and voiced his concerns. Even though he came under scrutiny he stood by his view and made a good amount of counter arguments to back himself up.

    What did you want to bring to my attention here?
    The fact thats he is debating intelligently and you don't like his point of view in 'your' thread...?

    I really am not sure what you expected me to do here p0cket?
    This is your thread about something you did on your car... If it works and is popular then many will follow suit.

    The way he's done it isn't the "Hot Setup" like we do with ducting to a rotor core cooling plate... but it's no worse than the original ducting.
