Default s2kmugen; J's Racing bumper air duct system

Hey guys,

After the Redline Time Attack run near Chicago last month, Track Time Performance has been working on the car with a custom air duct system for my car, specificly working with the J's racing front bumper. I experienced some over heating issues with the rotor and pads and with similar set ups done before, the air duct system decrease the temperate 200 degrees+F . The materials they used were ordered from an aircraft company that is used to cool the engines and brakes on airplanes. As you'll notice below in the pics, the ducts up front are an orange color and can withstand up to aprox 600 degrees F while the rears are around 400 degrees F. The main reason why I didn't do the same as the front and back was honestly: cost. These price of the ducts are mucho $$$ and since the rears are always cooler in temperature, why not right!? Anyways, I want to thank Curt and Nate at Track Time for spending all the time making this awesome fabrication.

Nice FAb work John, now all you need is water/meth injection to cool down the airflow even more!!
