    Looks good
    Do you have any pictures of the mountings = brackets etc?

    I don't know the answer but would it be better (more efficient still) if the unused areas each side were blanked so as to increase frontal pressure and increase airflow through the cooler?
    Cheers,

    This is what Bradc did and apparently it made quite a bit of difference. Brad though is running close to 400HP...

    Yeh cheers .. The idea is good.. But I'm gonna leave it "as is" ...
    I only changed (facing the car) the left pipe as u can see in the picture... It's polished alloy. The right pipe I left because I ran out of time.....
