Although i am not going to say these do not work, but i do agree with Ricky when on them being an unnecessary addition.
I myself am adding some smaller ones to expel heat in our cali weather. But if Son didn't make some $100 options, it isn't something i would of even bothered doing.
I do see it as a trend with TTC cars though, and best of all to each their own.

Hate to bump an old thread, but does anyone know if these pass the new NASA rule about louver height? 3/8" max protrusion above the hood plane

Here we go
Hey guys,
Trackspec got a bunch of calls the other day about this rule change and I wanted to clear some air around our design and assure everyone with Trackspec vents they are INDEED IN COMPLIANCE to rule ST1-4 & SU (v13.3) and ST5 & ST6 (v2.4) as discussed on this thread. Here are some specific model vent heights OFF OF THE HOOD SURFACE. This is the MAX anyone could interpret on reading the rule. If its off of the vent frame, we are even more in compliance.
Rule regulation max height: .375"
Miata: .21"
BRZ/FRS: .28"
S2000: .28"
C5 Corvette: .19"
C6 Corvette: .19"
944 Porsche: .28"
E36 BMW: .28"
E46 BMW: .171"
Universal 4 and 5 x 12": .23"
GT2 Center vent: .21"
More measurements available upon request thru emailing us trackspecmotorsports@gmail.com. We don't come on this forum very often but will try and check up on this one while we are traveling to COTA leaving this week. We are working on releasing a technical bulletin shortly on this subject and will have your model specific measurements and technical drawings available for download to bring to tech. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Our vents better be in compliance as I will be running in ST2 NASA COTA event next weekend in the SPEC CORVETTE
! Feel free if anyone is at the event to come by and discuss with us. We will have a large SPEC CORVETTE and Trackspec Canopy up, friday night will have the grill going. I'll post on FB and IG where we end up landing in the parking lot.
Thank you for your continued support and please let us know if you have any questions.
