Hood vents???

Post by SKT » Tue Nov 09, 2010 10:17 pm

Anyone installed any hood vents in their Suby lately???

I want to give the heat an extra escape route from my Foz mounted n/a H6.....

Just remember that any reversed vent are illegal unless they have covers underneath them but that would make them pointless :???:

Maybe u could put side vents in the guards, near the indicator repeater lights, like a fully sik HSV commodore :)

how about venting the inner guard?


using the physics of it, like porche used to maybe the air would be sucked out by the fan

A similar question, what's people's opinions on what looks best on an L series bonnet?
I've always thought that a wrx type scoop is to large for an L series and have been thinking about either an Mitsubishi Evo 7 (two piece) or 8 (single) mesh bonnet vent.
Thoughts?
